Not Carbon. Not Sorry.
A road bike lineage shaped over decades of fast aluminum racing machines – smooth welds, sharp geometry and real race-bike handling. The CAAD14 was built for the pure feeling of road riding: the pull, the glance, the shoulder-to-shoulder sprint and the finish line with your arms in the air.
Model description
Real aluminum race-bike character for riders who want modern performance in its purest form. The CAAD14 2 combines its SmartForm C1 Premium alloy frame with SRAM Rival AXS wireless shifting and a ride feel that stays true to classic CAAD proportions – direct, balanced and lively under power.
DT Swiss E 1800 Spline wheels spin up quickly and reliably, while the Delta steerer keeps the cockpit clean and the handling precise when the speed rises. The result is everyday speed with true race intent – built for hard accelerations, fast corners and long days on the road.
What it’s built for
All-or-nothing attacks. Full-gas sprints. Fearless cornering. Feeling alive.
