Cannondale Aficionados / Owners

Update on mine for winter miles. Pink paint is looking a bit dirty but who cares. Still rides lovely.

So ghetto

this is actually a rail bridge in rural Gloucestershire. Jacob Rees-Mogg's constituents are kicking back hard ☭☭☭

I can definitely recommend the praxis bb30 to 24 converter. Done about 5000km and no creak. Much better option than those plugs and bb30 bearings. But cost is around £50. Worth it though.

i want green then. :D

Very nice indeed. Makes me wonder have they made the cage mounts bit lower on the new supersix? Dont your bibs rub against that seatpack?

Nope, it's the best saddlepack I've used. Mack Workshops. Doesn't rub, doesn't swing, carries enough stuff. I don't think looks amazing, but it's the bees knees. Iunno about the cage mounts, my seatpost is bottomed out to avoid the top-tube, and my downtube bottle is a bit higher to avoid fouling the seat tube one. Ty btw. Looking forward to replacing it with a 52 Supersix from this year, if the opportunity presents itself.

Mack workshop is awesome.

Got another Cannondale in for some fresh paint at the mo. CAAD 10 this time.... will be pretty wild when finished!

That is the pollocks...

Back to the BB30, SRAM do one that has a plastic sheath that fits between the bearing and the frame like a shrunken down PF30, I've got one in my Supersix, and there isn't a hint of creak, Cannondale spares sell them if you're wondering where to get one or which model it is...

You do some great looking work, but can we see the whole bike, so we can have a Cannondale paint porn wank fest?

Fnar

Looks bonkers - looking forward to full bike shots

It's not finished yet!

What is the base grey colour? I'm about to give mine to Mario to paint - would you paint it instead please?!

ive done over 5000km so far on current bb30 with no creak so thats hardly a glowing review for praxis converter, before that I had done 3oookm on a second hand bb30. No creak developed but I was upgrading a 2/3 year old groupset.

has anyone who says bb30 creaks actually ridden bb30?

I'd like to note that at no point did I say bb30 creaks...
To clarify, calling the praxis a 'better option' is down to the easy installation and maintenance of it. Keeping in mind that I've never installed bb30 bearings, this just looked a cleaner solution than some plugs.

Also, cool story bro...

Ok so I thought setting the brakes up would be easy once I'd got some nice light black Ti bolts.

Nope.

The fork is 140mm

I bought 160mm rotor for the front

PLEASE does anyone have a post to post 20mm adapter and some 40mm M6 bolts (ideally in black but beggars can't be choosers)

I'm also making a huge presumption a 160->180mm rotor adapter will do the same job for 140mm -> 160mm......

HELP!!! I WANT TO FONISH AND RIDE THIS BASTARD BIKE

AND @MechaMorgan NEEEEEEDDDSSS PICTURES

I think I have a few adapters but I'll have to check tonight after work dude. Came with the trp spyres but didn't need any.

Balls

Wanted to finish build tomorrow and ride Sunday ☹️

I'm gonna buy a 160-180 from Evans and seen if it fits

Just the fucking bastard bolts that I can't seem to find anywhere locally

I'll check my stash

Nice one fella!

It four different greys taht fade to black at the rear. They each one was custom mixed from white & black.

Sorry, I'm not a bike painter, and I dont take orders. It's just something i do for fun.
