Cannondale Aficionados / Owners

I mostly forget all about it, until somebody mentions wanting something in 54cm :-/

cross posting from mechanics thread, thought a few of you may know a thing about disc brakes since we have been discussing them for the past 20 pages or so

3rd day in mallorca and I notice a slight smearing of oil next to my brake caliper.. only the 5th ride on these brakes from new so obviously gutted (and yes I paid mud dock £50/hr labour fee to bleed them). However it doesnt feel as if there is any loss of power whatsoever..

I dont want to fuck anything up but is there anything I should tighten (bleed screw..?) have left as is currently and will obviously be taking it easier on the rear brake. front brake is perfect

Where is it?

mallorca!

No the oil you...

Oh I get it yes well done :)

on the chainstay.. along with pad dust

Think I'll join in the pontification on the disc brake thread...

ta, thanks again. i wish i could buy you @edscoble @Dammit @amey internet beers

this is lovely, if mine falls through I'll definitely give you a shout.

Got a replacement fork for the CAAD for 40 dorrar. Going to source a headset and will do the switchy-repack-returny dance if it is indeed fucked. Hopefully it won't be though and I'll have a wunderbar frame and cranks for affordable scratch. Fingers crossssseeeeddddd....

If the frame turns out to be good, that's some bargainous caad action!

@Howard speaking of CSG, I learnt that Evans Cycles cut tie with CSG and just went straight to dealing with Cannondale USA instead.

(I learnt it when finding out about the trade price of the CAAD10 Track, which is now £250 less than CSG),

I hope so, although I just spent the same amount on a headset as I did on the forks : /

hey dude, what's the spec on the rig? and how much you looking for? take it to pm if you like

I don't know if this is news to anyone else, but I just saw that they're finally selling a CAAD12 frameset for rim brakes. Pre order, stock available April.

Can anyone find anything else?

Makes sense - in their position I'd do the same

Whoa. really? Since when?

Not sure when, only been told about it last week when making queries.

aside from disc issues, awesome bike. needs lighter wheels though

What wheels are you currently running?

very very nice .. jelly of the location.

Handlebar and bottle cage ID?

superstar 11sp aeroroad disc wheels. 2kg

some spare alpina bottlecages I had. bars are matte graphic zipp sl70 ergos. probably could have done with bars with a shallower drop for descending but I think I will just go to a 120mm stem at some point instead

I agree and I can show you a frame cracked in 3 placed due to a head-on shock and a Fulcrum racing 7 that didn't even need truing afterward to prove it.

I really wish I'd have picked up this evans deal now...
