Cannondale Flying V Electric Bike – Full Specifications
The Cannondale Flying V electric bike is a high-performance carbon fiber e-bike engineered for urban commuting, fast-paced city riding, and everyday mobility. Combining a lightweight carbon chassis with premium commuter components and the latest Bosch Smart System motor, this 28 mph electric bike delivers a smooth, efficient, and low-maintenance ride.
Carbon Frame
Built around a sleek Cannondale Flying V carbon frame, this design features lightweight construction, an internal downtube battery, fully integrated cable routing, 135mm dropout spacing, a 1.5-inch headtube, flat mount disc compatibility, a removable 40mm Pletscher-style kickstand mount, and a concealed holder for a Bluetooth tracker like an Apple AirTag or Chipolo.
Carbon Fork
The matching lightweight carbon fork includes a 1.25" to 1.5" tapered steerer, internal cable routing, flat mount disc brake support, and a 12x100mm thru-axle for sharp handling and front-end stiffness.
Wheelset
Ryde alloy double-wall rims with 32 holes and a 25mm internal width offer durability and stability for daily commuting and city streets.
Front and Rear Hubs
The front wheel uses a Shimano TC500 12x100mm thru-axle hub, while the rear is equipped with a Shimano Nexus 5-speed internal gear hub, offering dependable shifting with minimal upkeep.
Spokes
DT Swiss Champion spokes add trusted strength and long-term reliability.
Urban Tires
Continental Contact Urban 700x50c tires are designed for comfort, traction, and confidence on pavement, making them ideal for electric city bike use.
Pedals

Crankset
A Samox Bosch e-bike crankset with left 0 offset and right 13mm offset is paired with a 52T Gates sprocket for efficient power transfer.
