Cannondale electric road bikes are designed for riders who want efficient speed on tarmac with the added benefit of electric assistance for hills, headwinds and longer routes. At the same time, Cannondale’s electric gravel options bring extra versatility for mixed surfaces, combining endurance comfort with confident handling on rough roads, gravel lanes and adventure routes.
Why choose a Cannondale electric road or gravel bike?
Cannondale’s approach is all about ride feel and real-world usability. Electric road bikes suit riders who prioritise speed and smooth efficiency on tarmac, while electric gravel bikes add stability, tyre clearance and comfort for riders who want one e-bike to handle varied routes and changing surfaces. If you like big miles, varied terrain and a fast but forgiving ride, Cannondale’s road and gravel e-bikes are a strong match.
