Poseidon X
Riders who want Poseidon with a sportier position than Redwood.
Poseidon's racier road/gravel chassis. Lower than Redwood, still a value bike rather than a WorldTour Tarmac twin.
Riders who want Poseidon with a sportier position than Redwood.
Poseidon's racier road/gravel chassis. Lower than Redwood, still a value bike rather than a WorldTour Tarmac twin.
Racers who like Cannondale's handling and want the serviceable frame. Synapse is the taller sibling; SuperX is the CX/gravel race cousin.
The fourth-generation EVO keeps the third generation's geometry but goes lighter, slipperier, and back to a threaded BSA bottom bracket. Same fit as the 2020–2022 bike, easier to live with.
Gravel riders who want Giant's drop-bar all-road, not a TCR with knobbies.
Giant's gravel bike: stable, mounts, and a position between Defy and a race gravel whip. The X variants add more suspension/travel attitude.
