Cannondale Aficionados / Owners

your cannondale portfolio is ridiculous and that's epic. I'd love that.

Your previous silver post / stem combo would go better on this I reckon.

Edit - misread - it's your mate's.

Double edit - as per @norfolkbound 's in the previous post. Nice! Face palm.

That's bad ass, can't work out how they have attached the mudguards though. What mudguards are they?

Eventually I'll upgrade mine as is quite a parts bin built, still one of the coolest paint jobs Cannondale have done IMHO

yeah would love one of these CAAD5 builds for my winter rig. think that is something I need to sort out.

Think it's using these

with these

If I ever take up cycling for fun in the cold I'll be putting some on my CAAD9 as it has good clearances. Think those guards will clear a 25c.

I thought they were PDWs but was hoping they were a cheaper alternative. One day I'll invest in a set but riding indoors on a turbo is much more appealing at the moment.

They look really neat on the caad though..

Kinesis Fend Off are similar shape but the stays are nowhere near as neat

i have those in 40mm and they are great. however as pictured without a brake bridge attachement.. forget it

Friend just bought a 2020 Synapse Tiaga. Does anyone have any bikepacking/touring setups on a recent Synapse I could show them? Thank you.

Not the clearest photo but the 2015 frame takes the Restrap bags well enough. This is the 8L saddle bag and 14L bar bag.

Also use the top tube bag but it was taken off here for snacking purposes.

Haha niiiiiiice. They the last ones in the world or some clones specifically fabricated?

this is what it says in the post :)

Hi there.

You guys know there is a few official parts of Headshok in the market, especially the boot, it’s hard to find out the service parts in recent years, perhaps lots of boot and O-ring of Headshok has been aged and supporting of official has been less and less, So that I had decided to produce the boot when I saw it. When I order they manufacturer to design the blueprint, I add a new feature that is easily replacing old boot. Finally I found that the more elastic material brings many functions, just like they can be fixed with fox Apls series suspension, and more interested things are waiting for us to find.

When I open booking the boots, there has been a few questions from fans. the most being asked question is about difference of 7 ridges boot and 5 ridges. given my knowledge, there are two versions of official boot, one is older looking fat before 2000 and having 7 ridges, the other is modern with 5 ridges and looks slim. But the new boot is not only having different diameters between both modern and older’s, but is designed taller than 5 ridges of DLR80 version. Based on more elastic rubber, it can supply more travel than before, so don’t worry about it.

In addition, the new boot doesn’t be tested for long times, there are 2 issues, 1. I found the light color is easily to get dirty that likes official boot. 2: it doesn't fold very perfect because it made of more elastic rubber to own the feature of easy replacing. so I will give you buyers of first batch of boot the biggest discount as possible as I can. i want make price lower but every costing makes me in stress, just like mold, raw material and energy. I know this boot not perfect, and please support me. I will take more energy to improve it and make some new redesigned parts. I’m not a seller, I just want our C community have more smile and our vintage parts works longer.

Thank you for encouraging me. 👍

Price:

25 US dollars per boot, but one boot have no discount. if you buy two, I will send you a random color boot for free. Price of shipping to US or Euro and PayPal fee is about $15, another country I will check it when you PM me.
Those who bought it before 2/6/2021, I will send you more boots for appreciating your support, thanks you very much to support me when I along.
I have never sold anything before, so maybe a little clumsy. Please MP me if you want them.😋

Thanks for you bearing my broken English, I’m sorry in advance if my word makes you uncomfortable.
PS: I have a plan to make a Lefty's boot after the spring festival, but I don't know how many people will buy it because the mold is expensive and the manufacturer won't produce a few quantity .
If this plan could be started, I want make a discussion post of designing boot to collect ideas and suggestions, I hope that every C fans become a designer of our parts.
2/7/2021

The yellow boots has been sold out.

Don't worry.I'll ask the manufacturer to produce them again. So that the next batch of boot will be delivered to me after the festival reason, at the end of February.

please wait and you can still book them from next batch.

              👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

What would people say a fair price is for this? These are hard to find, but £1400 seems a bit too much for a 2019 frame, epsecially considering the Supersix CX will come out at some point soon.

Strongly priced but frame only and in that colour way hard to find. It has been around for awhile suggesting seller won’t budge. I’ve been looking for a 58/60.
Worth noting I think this has asymmetric rear so wheel lacing need to account for this.

yes pretty expensive. a nice agressive Cx frame though but as mentionned, custom rear wheel dishing is needed

Yeah, I know about the asymmetric fun, would mean to have the wheels relaced

Does anyone know what frame this is?

Thanks!

I don't know what frame it is but could it be a resprayed MTB frame with a road fork?

Or redished. There’s a video on YouTube of a Cannondale rep doing it. Depends on spoke lengths.

Can you get away without changing the spokes?

Depends on spoke lengths of your current wheel. Check the vid.

Btw, the seller won't go lower than £1150, still high imo, but it's there if anyone wants it at that price.

That seems pretty good, why do you think otherwise?
Don’t think there is anything outdated on it??

No, it's same spec at the more recent 2021 models, but still superseded from a market value point of view. I have £1k in mind as price point for it, is it too low?

Yeah tricky. The wheel thing is a bit of a nuisance.
I’m biased as I’m finding it hard to find a 60 in any of the things I’d consider. 2nd hand prices are high at the moment.
I guess will it frustrate more to miss out or to overpay in your mind?
