I purchased a Cannondale SuperX a few years ago to be my winter and foul weather bike. I did make some changes to make it closer to a road bike rather than a CX bike.
1) put the same saddle on that's on my Emonda
2) replaced the 44cm handle bars with 42cm
3) replaced the alloy seatpost with a carbon seatpost
4) got a second set of wheels with Bontrager AW2 all weather 32mm tubeless tires
The bike has Sram 1x with a 11-32 cassette and 40T chainring. It also has hydro disc brakes.
It's a awesome bike and i've done group rides of 40+ miles. It rides like a Cadillac while my Emonda rides like a Porsche.
Each has their place.
