Cannondale says

Eye-opening evolution. Answering the demands of endurance high-rollers. Our lightest and stiffest aluminum hard-tail design to date. Changing little to achieve more. We’re notorious for oversized tubing. It’s not about being different—it’s about improving performance. The oversized seat stays of the Caffeine make for a lighter and stiffer rear triangle, while the top tube is flared and formed for thinner walls and reduced weight. The seat tube is also 30% larger—again reducing wall thickness and weight while providing increased stiffness.
