Online images have surfaced of what appears to be the new Cannondale CAAD14. This suggests that the long-awaited successor to the CAAD13 is finally on the horizon. The images and accompanying information on various websites—including BikeRadar—have not yet been officially confirmed by Cannondale.
According to the leaked photos posted on X by user @John_Doe_0774, Cannondale is returning to a classic frame design with tall seat tubes and a horizontal top tube for the CAAD14. This marks a clear departure from the more aerodynamic lines of the CAAD13.
Furthermore, the frame appears to be equipped with a UDH rear dropout, allowing compatibility with the latest SRAM derailleurs. Fully internal cable routing also appears to be present, similar to the carbon SuperSix EVO.

Additionally, rumors point to multiple versions within the CAAD14 lineup. There could be an entry-level model with a Shimano 105 mechanical groupset, while reports also mention versions equipped with SRAM Rival AXS and Force AXS. There might even be a limited high-end version featuring a carbon cockpit and wheelset. A frameset-only option is also said to be part of the range.
Notably, geometry data has surfaced through an external database, indicating that the CAAD14 will come in six sizes and have geometry similar to the SuperSix EVO. Features such as a BSA threaded bottom bracket and clearance for tires up to 32 millimeters are also mentioned. According to rumors, the official launch is scheduled for March 2026, though this has not yet been confirmed.
