Maintenance Schedule

Cannondale Topstone Carbon 3

The Cannondale Topstone Carbon uses the Kingpin rear pivot for compliance. It adds comfort without a shock to service, but gravel wear still applies everywhere else.

Service Intervals
Chain: check every 300 mi, replace at 1,200-1,800 mi Cassette: replace every 2 chains Tires (40c): replace at 1,500-2,500 mi Kingpin pivot: inspect annually Brake pads: replace at 1,000-2,000 mi Full tune-up: every 12 months or 2,000 mi

The Kingpin pivot is low maintenance but not no maintenance. Have it inspected at every annual service.

Track it automatically

Saddle connects to Garmin, Wahoo, and Strava, counts every mile on your bike, and tells you when each component is actually due. Then it books the work at your local shop in one tap.
