SuperSix EVO Gen 5 frameset — how does the Delta steerer/stem interface work with different cockpits?
Hi everyone,
I’m planning to buy a Cannondale SuperSix EVO Gen 5 frameset, but I’m still confused about the whole Delta steerer/stem interface.
As far as I understand, the frameset comes with some of the required adapters/spacers, but I’m not sure what is actually included.
My questions are:
If I want to use a regular separate stem + handlebar, do I need to buy Cannondale’s specific aftermarket adapter kit for this?
What happens if I want to use an integrated one-piece cockpit (monocoque handlebar/stem)?
Polymer Workshop has its own adapter for the Delta steerer. Does that adapter replace the Cannondale parts, or are there still additional components needed?
If I want to use a different integrated cockpit from another manufacturer, does it need its own Delta-compatible adapter? Or is there some standard interface that allows different cockpits to be installed?
Basically, I’m trying to understand what comes with the Gen 5 frameset, what is required for a normal stem, and what is required for an aftermarket integrated cockpit.
If anyone has built a Gen 5 frameset with an aftermarket cockpit, I’d really appreciate some photos/details of how the setup works.
Thanks!
