Cannondale Aficionados / Owners

yeah i got blasted for sticking this in hhsrb. Most of it fair.

I don't know much about these tbh, but looks like it's a CAD3 rather than CAAD technically? So prob an honest mistake. Plus he put the start price at a reasonable amount. I like the Time decals!

It's not a CAD3 (to me CAD3 and CAAD3 mean the same but I may be wrong) but a 2.8 frame, which was available up until 1996.
It's probably an honest mistake but the guy has put so much effort to have it resprayed and built, he should at least have known better and put the correct decal set...

I see. Dare you to drop him a note and let him know! Looks like he's tried to replicate this:

Anyone on here that rides a 51?

Yeah that's much better :)

I'm more curious about what he's done with the headset, I'm trying to understand but... wtf?

I have a Hollowgram SAVE carbon seatpost that is surplus to requirements. Brand new, fitted but never ridden - removed from my brand new Topstone Carbon. 27.2 x 350mm.

Any one in here want before I do a normal sale ad? £50 ( I think they are around £120 RRP)

any recommendations for an alternative to the standard Cannondale compression plug on the caad12?
struggling to find 22mm dia plugs that offer a bit more internal clamping (i.e. deda) and take a standard top cap

Yeah, that’s the pre-cad naming era fro sure. The font on the down tube is a giveaway to it being wrong too

Oohhhh, mebbe.

Which do the in crowd prefer?

The 10 🦾

Yep 10

Less seatposts. More pics of the paint plz. Tx.

Does the forum/Cannondale hive mind have a positive opinion on the
aluminium Topstone as a sound choice for a versatile winter/light touring bike
(the 105 hydraulic model) I'm tempted and would love another Cannondale to complement my Caad 12. Ta.

Whilst we're here, asking questions whats the best / is there a collective opinion on a good quality bb30 for a 2015 Evo hi-mod? Whats the cane creek 40 of this bottom bracket standard?

Capo.

Capo!

I have the threaded WheelsMFG one in mine and it's been flawless

Thanks so much @TooTallTim What crankset are you running?
Im planning on building mine up with Hollowgram Si's. Having looked into it is the WheelsMFG an outboard bb30 adapter? Thanks in advance. Have a good Weekend.

Sisl2's in this - https://wheelsmfg.com/pf30-threaded-abec-3-bb-black.html

He's heat shrink sleeved the top headset, you can see he's gone OTT with the heat shrink on the cable ends, barrel adjusters and cables from the bars.

very classy

What do you guys reckon would be a fair price for this frameset (i want to buy)?

Cheers

Anyone got a spare low stack bearing cover to replace the 25mm cone?

Maybe try Sigma, they had a few knocking around last time i asked that are not listed on the website.
