Why this bike wins here

The Greenway is rolling, with 8.0 m of climbing per kilometre, the kind of course where aerodynamics usually counts for far more than low weight. The Cannondale SuperSix EVO LAB71 Team is a climbing frame. Disc or regular wheels is a close call: the Cadex 4-Spoke/Disc is 5.6 s faster than the SwissSide HADRON Ultimate 650, but 0.37 kg heavier.
