ok my bit of wisdom.....i have a cannondale major taylor, same geometry as capo,same caad5 main frame, same slice ultra carbon fibre forks, bb height classic 28.4mm BB height. it may be a bit on the slack side compared to "true" track bikes on the market whatewer that is. also if true track bike has to be tight as fukk then how come dolan track champion is a true track bike which people are winning races on, yet the front end has the same slack front end as my non-track cannondale????.............
as for the ride quality and complete package bought from evans as cannondale cappo - the components are shit. for someone who owned more that one bike and is on the forum.for someone who buys this as a first bike its cool.same story as on the rest of the off the peg bikes. thats how they keep the price low......and the reason the package is more expensive on the capo is the frame is handmade still in US of A and its much nicely finished then the rest of the frames.
and ride quality - it awright. No probs at all...a bit slacker then my previous bikes...any impact on the way you ride???? no.
difference to steel???? no not really. a touch stiffer but nothing major thanks to the features of teh frame alraedy mentioned. carbon forks, curved seatstays,slackler geometry.
so there...like it??? buy it
