Cannondale Aficionados / Owners

Lucky you. I cannot get 25mm GP4Ks to fit the rear of my Evo HM, had to settle with 25 front, 23 back. Front end feels much plusher now though!

There's also deals to be done on new 2014/5 framesets if you look around regularly.

You'd get a full warranty with that and some token shop support - which is why it is such an amazing deal.

All things equal I'd strongly recommend going alu and have full warranty and support than try to find a used evo. The Evo just isn't that much better. But it depends what you are doing with it. Sunday best then maybe it doesn't matter so much. Crit racing...well. Another matter.

I suspect the paint choices would sway a decision somewhat, too :)

In other news some cross country miles - and some trail ridding - where smashed out on this today. Much fun.

Proper whippet that. How you liking the Ralphs?

I do like how the small chainring make it look like it's a long way away due to the angle of the bike.

I've got 25c OP on my 48cm Supersix with tonnes of room to spare ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Ducking terrifying in anything but today's conditions

They need to be replaced - they are the performance line which is a bit of an insult on a £3k (retail) race bike.

Did my first brevet yesterday. 218k 10h 1min 27,6km/h average. Damn i love my caad! So comfy on 25 tyres even

They need to be replaced

Yep, time for a pair of 360g Furious Freds on there....

You know what, ghetto tubeless on a daily commuter and two trips to Brighton and back and still not a single puncture on them.

Touch wood Lots of wood.

They're not constructed from spider webs then :-)

Even more frail, just like my riding capability.

sterling effort, speed is pretty high for a typical audax.

won a sram red right hand lever on ebay for £45. SRAM red it is!

seemed to cheap to pass by ^^

@BareNecessities in the recesses of my mind you were selling a little Cannondale frame. If that is correct, is it still for sells and can you point me in the direction of more info?

Think it was a 54...is that really little?!

Thought it was smaller - mind playing tricks.

I could be wrong... @BareNecessities?

It was a 54 complete bike and was recently sold to @jonny

Thought I'd have that bike stored away forever.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a Caad10 frameset sz. 50, that doesn't cost more than the new Caad12?

oh my.

Mine is 6.3kg for a 54cm v the 56cm CAAD 12 Ultegra Disc 3 (8.34kg) or the non disc (7.5kg).

Personally, once you get below 9.5kg, it become harder to really pinpoint the difference (with same wheels, tyres and shift/brakes feel), the ride charactistic is what really stood out and that can give the illusion of weight losses/gain (like a CX bike with slow steering make it feel heavy to ride).

You've ridden up a mountain in a group, right?

And not with a group of audax beards - with a group of roadie douches with good engines

Then a couple of kg makes a shed load of difference, all other things equal
