Cyclocross is a hardcore pursuit, a test of wintertime toughness that builds skills and stamina while you have a muddy good time. But a good cyclocrosser is more than just a one-trick race pony—it’s the most versatile road bike you could own.

The Supernova was a sell-out last year because we did it right. Starting with the lightweight Kinesium frame with top tube shaped for comfortable portaging and carbon stays to take the sting out of hardpan washboard. But we weren’t content to sit on our laurels, so we upgraded the bike this year to include Kore Kross cantilevers, SRAM’s Rival drivetrain and an integrated seat binder/rear brake cable stop. This is a racer’s racer, from start to barrier to podium.

This is old school race stuff laced with high-tech inspiration, built to ride fast.
