Team EF Education-Oatly has debuted a new Cannondale Supersix Evo race bike on stage 1 of the Womens Tour Down Under. Were on the ground at the Australian WorldTour curtain-raiser, and first spotted the new bike on top of team cars heading to the start of stage 1, and a little later when the EF Education-EasyPost mens riders rolled out for a pre-race training ride. The teams have remained tight-lipped over the new bike, but heres what we can tell about it so far now weve gotten a glimpse with our own eyes. What we can see While similar to the current SuperSix Evo, there are some noticeable tweaks with this new bike. Ashley Quinlan / Our Media The new bike doesnt rip up the previous Supersix rulebook it looks incredibly similar at a glance but it appears to have an updated tubeset, with a deeper, more concave headtube and reprofiled fork crown. It would be unsurprising if the new Supersix turned out to be more aerodynamically efficient, of course, but the rear triangle also looks remodelled, sporting more curvature and a new downward kink towards the rear dropout. The seatpost has been deepened and dropped the cutaway of the previous model, perhaps with a view to improve aerodynamics. Ashley Quinlan / Our Media The seat tube also looks to be inspired by the latest Synapse endurance bike, with a thinner, flattened profile. This might hint towards a drive to improve compliance alongside better aerodynamics. On the driveside, its possible to make out a universal derailleur hanger (UDH) dropout, which isnt a shocking development given most new bikes include the standard. Incidentally, but perhaps linked, both teams have switched to SRAM (from Shimano) for the 2026 race season. Riders are also using a new integrated handlebar. In previous years, the team has used Vision cockpits (along with the brands wheels, which remain), but the new cockpit is also visually distinct from the previous bikes MOMO-developed SystemBar R-One handlebar which ships with current top-spec SuperSix Evos. The head tube has a more concave profile than before, and a new handlebar has appeared. Con Chronis / Getty Images Also notable is a tweaked seatpost design. Before, the seatpost tapered towards the head, but now it remains a uniform depth along its length. If Cannondale follows previous form, it will likely produce three variants of the SuperSix Evo the Lab71 featuring its highest-grade carbon, and Hi-Mod and standard Carbon variants. Both EF Education-Oatly and EF Education-EasyPost riders are riding bikes branded Lab71. Both teams have switched to SRAM drivetrains for 2026, with both natively using SRAM's UDH design on show here. Con Chronis / Getty Images
