Cannondale SuperSix Evo Neo Road e-Bike 2020 • First Ride Test Review

[@lancehuff9846]

Like your Videos ! I watched this VIDEO when it first came out , 3 months later found a brand new one at a local bike shop , best thing I ever did BOUGHT IT ! been riding 46 years ! I love this bike its all about enjoying the ride now at 60 !! Just bought the cannondale quick neo SL 2 for my wife ! We're set !

[@David-lp2fv]

Bought one of these and it is fantastic. It allows me to enjoy cycling rather than dreading the pain. I can enjoy 40kms, rather than say punish myself for 20Kms. Worth noting you still have to work and it’s great for fitness. There are no downsides IMO.

[@ingguidesmedia]

Couldn't agree more. Really appreciate your feedback. Thx!

[@klyyoung2728]

Love your content. Great stuff!

[@timowen5741]

Thanks for this review, by far the best I’ve watched as you answered the questionS I had. Definitely going to order one now.

[@ingguidesmedia]

I've been riding mine all spring now. Love IT!

[@ketchupallen1]

The company is the best.

Nice review, thanks! About your goal on maintaining 130 bpm heart rate, you achieved it on the green, or yellow mode? I guess it depends on the slope %

[@ingguidesmedia]

Thx Luis. 95% of time in green.

Looking at this one vs Topstone Neo 5. I realize the Topstone is marketed for gravel…but for $500 more, maybe extra set of wheels to do road. I believe the SuperSix EVO, your discussing, is a light weight carbon bike with an added bonus of pedal assist for sticky situations(a hill). I believe this might fit what I’m ultimately wanting, all the fitness with a regular carbon bike, just added juice for the hills(where I run into trouble with group rides). Sounds like in the video you enjoyed your choice in the SuperSix EVO…do you still enjoy it? Like all bikes right now…slim pickings…I’m 5’9…web site says a medium, but maybe able to do large depending on fitting. What’s your thoughts on sizing if I find one?

[@jakeluber8275]

I just bought one last week and I’m 5’10 with 31-32 inseam and the Medium fits me great. I thought the same thing, never test rode and purchased online. My Buddy has a Small and said the Medium will fit and was right. I usually ride a 56cm in Trek/Specialized but this fits me.

[@luciobio]

Follow the manufacturer guidelines for the measurements. I always used medium (54) but with supersix evo I bought a 54 and need to sell it and buy a 51. This is something crazy, but with the new geometry the things changed.

Hey there . I am in the uk and am looking for a bike to commute to work and some weekend riding ! Firstly I weigh 240 pounds . How much assist can this motor provide and should I be concerned with a carbon frame ? Thanks for the review

[@ingguidesmedia]

You're welcome. Thx for commenting. Given your situation, I might take a look at some of the great commuter style, think more upright with a straight bar, bike. They give you some assist and have features that make commuting on them fun and practice. The motor on this bike provides up to 20mph of assist, which is exactly right for my needs. Jack

[@jamesc6137]

What size frame?…M or L. How tall are you?

[@jackhutchens]

Thanks for the review. I thought the motor cuts out at 25kph (15mph). But you’re able to ride at 20mph?

[@ingguidesmedia]

You are welcome. My motor cuts out at 20mph. Around 19.5 it starts this in and out of assist, which is something you have to get the hang of. I hope that helps.

[@vincekerrigan8300]

That's the European speed regulation.

[@nindythelittlebarista]

Very cool bike! Can we just turn off the electric pedal assist system and go manually?

[@ingguidesmedia]

Nindy The Little Barista Yup. That’s how most of my rides on it start. I forget to turn on the power and only notice it when I start an uphill. I ride without assist a lot of the time. I go to the motor when my heart rate starts going over 130bpm.

[@nindythelittlebarista]

@@ingguidesmedia wow great. I wish I could have one ;-)

[@johnkelly-pd3vq]

Hi from ireland, Great review, what is the widest tyre this bike can take, 30 or 32?

[@ingguidesmedia]

Hey John. The rims aren’t particularly wide. I’ve got 25’s on mine. A 28 would work, but I think you’ll have handling issues if you go beyond that. The drawback with the hub motor is that your stuck with the stock wheels.

[@johnkelly-pd3vq]

@@ingguidesmedia thats great, thanks for the info

[@David-lp2fv]

@@johnkelly-pd3vq I’ve just put 32 on mine.

[@yvesn58]

Is there a speed limitation that you get rid of when using the assistance ?

[@ingguidesmedia]

yvesn58 Yep! Motor cuts out at 20mph.

[@MultiEski]

i got UK version and my only do 15mph , and cuts out.

[@tvd9015]

is the creaking at 1:31 from the seat post? I noticed that other people observed this noise

[@ingguidesmedia]

No, that’s noise from the GoPro mic. I haven’t noticed any creaking from this bike.
