- SuperX Hi-Mod with Force CX1, Stan's Grail wheelset, Wolftooth 40T chainring.
- SuperX Ultegra with mechanical Ultegra, Mavic Aksium wheelset.
- SuperX 105.
- SuperX Rival CX1 with FSA chainring.
- Some CAADXes.
Got a link or photos? I tried skimming through Blog Cannondale with very little luck.

I think you must use a 26" fork. And then maybe reduce travel.

reducing travel does not mean reduce axle to crown height, in a Lefty

I know. But why not just use a 26" lefty?

26" Lefty is however too high for a cyclocross bike

It's not a SuperX, but I think the Lefty bike people have seen is for the Slate. I've just seen some info on The Radavist site, it appears to also have 650B wheels, to allow fatter tyres but retain sharper geometry.
Looks like a fun bike!

That bike has the unidentified cranks on it. They definitely have narrower arms and they appear to have some sort of cutout at the back. I'm guessing these may be some cheaper non-hollowgram
I'm not sure how I feel about it to be honest. I like the idea on paper, but without riding it, I've got no idea if the 30mm suspension travel seems worth the hassle
Also, if they do a full run of sizes, I hope XL or XXL are based around 700C wheels - 650B makes no sense for large bikes.

With 42mm tyres on 650b rims I'm not sure I'd actually need/want suspension, seems this "Slate" is trying to fill a niche within a niche. That said I'd still give it a test ride!
So the new/unidentified crank is on both the Slate and the 105 Super-x. It must be a cheaper/heavier hollowgram. Will be interested to see the specs.

I'm not so sure that they're the same. The Slate has Spidering with a new design.
