  • First ride of the 2023 Cannondale Topstone 4 on the Etobicoke Creek Trail.
    My initial impressions of the bike sprinkled throughout the video.
    This bike came with the 1x10 Microshift Advent X groupset, which will soon be getting swapped out.

    Great review. How would you asses this bike in terms of damping road vibrations, compared to other bikes you had? Does the Cannondale frame a noticeably better job? I'm sitting on fence right now between this bike, and super equipped bike (full GRX and DT Swiss wheels) from a less known, local brand, with a quire regular frame (perhaps made in China). The other bike is slightly more expensive, but still a bargain for the price.

      Honestly, the frame itself does a pretty good job at dampening the vibrations. That is also due to the wheel and tire setup. However, I do get a lot of vibrations thru the handlebars which can be jarring at times. I’m switching over to carbon handlebars hoping it makes it a little better.
      Depending on your plans with the bike I’d say go for the other bike. Seems like a better overall package. If you want to upgrade it in the future then go with this. Aluminum is always going to be a little more firm to ride. Carbon is a lot more compliant.

    こちらの音なりはひどかったので、スラムの太鼓型ブレーキパッドとニッセンのケーブルに交換したところ、制動力アップ、音鳴りは全くなくなりました。

    Hello man,
    Enjoy your video.
    Do you recommend buying the bike?
    It's the aluminum version I guess. Many people have talked about the noise or poor braking quality (you can hear them, in fact) and the rear cassette whose gear shifts can skip. Did you have the same problem?
    Thank you for your answers.

      Hey, yes this is the aluminum version. I’d say the brakes are definitely a weak point for the bike but I’ve only done one ride so far. I want to clean the brakes and go for another ride to see if they’re still noisy. I didn’t experience any problems with the shifting so far. The shifting experience has been really smooth and crisp, better than I expected. Other than the brakes the bike is really nice, the brakes can also be easily upgraded to hybrid calipers without breaking the bank.

      @@Velodeen Hey man, thanks for your response. Well, imagine I finally bought it today. On sale, so not expensive. And I'm looking for a single chainring with this type of cassette and road handlebar/handlebar. So pack, it's weighed!
      Thank you and good luck on your bike!

      That’s great! I hope you enjoy the bike! I’ll be making more videos about it and the upgrade process. Stay tuned!

    I actually find it hard to believe they dare to sell a bike with squeeking brakes like that. *EDIT I just bought this bike as of 2024-05-15. The breaks do not squeek if they are properly adjusted. I love the bike so far.

    • @Velodeen
      @Velodeen  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Yeah, not sure if I did anything wrong or if the brakes weren't bed in properly. I just switched to hydraulic brakes and its been a huge improvement over the stock ones.

      @@Velodeen I found this bike on discount and decided to give it a go. It came from a professional shop, they adjusted the breaks prior to shipping. They do not squeek. Hope it stays that way.

      Haha no! I still have the SL7 Sport! It actually got a lot of upgrades recently. Just waiting on the weather to get a little better before I make more videos soon!
