  • Finally got the Cannondale CAAD8 R900 done. I believe this was originally SirBikeAlots then I bought it off JB and now here it is!

    SRAM apex (works wonderfully well)
    Mix of parts I had and some shit shimano r501 wheels. They will be replaced soon.
    It will also be wearing some SKS raceblades - PDW wouldn't fit.

    Anyway, rides very well and I'm extremely happy.

    Edit, may need to still adjust cable housing lengths etc. SRAM says 36cm for the RD housing... looks long. I'm sure on my other RIVAL setup it was shorter than that.

  • fucking tight. love the newer Force cranksets.
    zipp post to satisfy that urge.

    FYI Rose bikes just delivered me a SRAM groupset build: cabling 27cm

  • Cheers man.
    27cm you say? What group? Mine definitely needs shortening (the rear RD cable).
    I've been riding it all week and it's one of the bikes that just feels right. The biggest letdown is the wheels, noticeably heavy and lifeless. Cheap tyres too. I'll kill them over winter and sort out something nice for next year.
