Cannondale Size Chart By Height Guide (Road & Mountain Bike)

Cannondale bicycles are expensive,. If you are buying one, then you’ll probably never look for another one again. So, choosing a perfectly fitting bike is critical. When you pick up a bike that doesn’t fit, you’ll not only lose the joy of cycling, but it may also lead to muscle strain.

Cannondale offers variety of bicycle types, such as road/race bike, mountain & e-bike, kids bikes, and so on. Most Cannondale bikes come in eight frame sizes ranging from 48-63 cm.

Now, how do I know my right Cannondale bike size? Pretty simple! You just have to drive through the below charts as per your height (and most importantly your standover height).

Cannondale frame sizing guide – 3 things to know

Before we move ahead, let’s first understand three basic things to find out your ideal Cannondale frame size:

  • Leg inseam – Distance from your crotch to your foot with shoes on (measure in centimeter)
  • Standover height – Distance from top tube to the ground (inseam length + 2.54/5 cm = your standover height)
  • Cannondale geometry – Cannondale officially mentions on their website to consider ‘standover height’ more seriously than your height. The brand uses ‘F’ as standover height in their bike geometry.

EXAMPLE – If you have an inseam of 70 cm (30″), choose a bike with standover height of 65.5 cm (29″). The thumb rule is – there should be at least 1-2 inch gap between your crotch and top tube when straddling the bicycle.

Cannondale bike sizing guide

What if your height/standover height falls in the same size?

  • Go for a larger one if you are tall and have longer arms and legs.
  • Casual rider and have shorter legs/arms? Opt for the smaller one.
  • Pro rider and looking for speed? Larger size would be perfect.
