E54s Quiver (Cervélo T1 completed)

Oh and because of people buying all the ugly bits from the saeco off of me within a week, invest in the saeco turned out to be less than €400 (without wheels)

That black and gold CAAD3 Saeco is lovely. Think there is a similar one on Ebay at the moment as well!

Many thanks!

Yea its funny.. havent seen one in approx 5 years and after i grabber mine there were 3 others within three months, all in 56

However i am glad that mine already has a fairly useful groupset on it, instead of the stock coda (triple?) crank and brake and so on

+1 to come soon

Ah great find!

Steerer too short, though :-((

Cleaned off some horrible parts in the meantime

Also found a not-so-cheap fork but condition is nice though

So damn hot. Love the red cages.

@Sig_Arlecchino not sure, looks much lighter in daylight

@BernardRenault thanks! Its got a 12-30 cassette and a gold chain now (pics to follow)

Found a nice straight and cannondale labeled time fork for the blue CAD; need to cut steerer or replace threaded headset with threadless headset 🧑🏻‍🦯

1 Attachment

Alright, threaded headset replaced by threadless headset and alloy fork replaced by carbon fork

Much nice

Installing crown race and star nut without proper tools, however, sucks big time

2 Attachments

Looking good! Just keep an eye on those forks, I had a similar pair and eventually the alloy fork end debonded from the carbon legs. Luckily I wasn't riding it at the time or it could have been painful!

Thanks man

Re forks sounds not too promising though :-G

Love me the clean look of some gumwalls

New project arrived last week

CAD 2 c400 in colour eggplant

Great condition with brakes and drivetrain already maintained

To dos:

• replace headset, seatpost clamp, stem
  
• throw on mudguards and rack(s)
  
• replace coda cranks
  
• Replace front wheel by hub dynamo
  
• Install lights
  
  

Today i replaced the headset in the first place and also removed pedals and chainrings for the intended replacement cranks

Stem also replaced by a sakae from parts bin

The wide tires ride really lovely

Cheers
