  • I think it has been asked before (maybe even by myself lul) but i cannot find it:

    The bordeaux Saecos of which a CAAD 5 and a CAAD 7 exist:

    • caad7 has OPTIMO on the seat tube and caad 5 has CAAD5 on seat tube, right?

    • Theres no way a caad 5 has optimo written on it?

    • what are the differences (except 7 is rarer than 5)?

    • what would be your estimated price for a 5/7 frameset including OG fork and good shape?

    Many thanks guys 💝

  • I think optimo refers to the specific aluminium they were made of, and only came out with the caad 7.

    Correct that a 5 can’t be an optimo.

    7’s less old, and I assume maybe lighter? And prob some other design tweaks and hence I’d pay more for a 7.

    My dream frame would be a sparkly blue 54cm caad7 optimo.

    What they’re worth purely based on condition, paint scheme and how bad you want it. I’d pay a decent amount for the above. But you could prob get an average one for £100? Maybe less.
