Oh no, I'm talking about buying a complete CAAD10 as a winter bike! No splitting, no building, just riding ASAP.
Of course, there are things that I'd change (wheels, internal battery, chainrings) but out of the box it's a pretty convincing package. Still not 100% on wired electronics but it would certainly tide me through for 3-4 years. Would also mean I could leave the SuperSix until summer to be repaired & repainted / replaced.

Yeah, try something new. No hassle either, just swap parts.
No need to split up the CAAD10, sell the parts, deal with dibsing, posting, lowballing etc etc.
After reading about the Kinesis I'm tempted to try one myself. Think it looks good in a functional, but tough kinda way.
Think of it this way, the CAAD 10 could live in your mind as the nearly nice, but not as nice as supersix. An annoying second choice. The Kinesis, well, it'll be different and you'll be happy to ride it into the ground. Just need to find a good deal on the frame.
