Product overview

If energy can be boosted by a material or engineering design, this is the answer. When the terrain is buffed out vs. technical - the Taurine is the Cannondale pro-rider choice for unrestrained speed on dirt. Each tube of the Taurine is optimized for a specific purpose. The down tube is oversized and round for maximum power transfer while the top tube is slightly ovalized for 'out of the saddle' sprints and climbs.
