  • ^Please don't take this the wrong way but is that a joke? That has to be one of the worst Cannondale builds I have ever seen.
    Every single part on that could be better, from the wheels, the crank, cables, seatpost, frame etc, how did you manage to spend 5k on that?

    Yup, it's definitely not gonna be everyone's cup of tea. Money doesn't go far nowadays, but to give you some kind of idea, as to the cost of things, here's a brief costing list:

    Respray (frame & wheels, 2Pak) + Custom stickers = £600
    Forks (Brand new old stock) = £700
    XT (Black) Groupset (Brand new) £1200
    Carbon fibre parts (Brand new) £300
    Fox RP23 Kashima shock (Brand new) £350
    Jekyll swingarm & V600 Front Triangle £150
    Titanium bolts, washers & other parts (Brand new) £200
    Bassano Grimeca Magnesium Wheels £1200
    Garmin Edge 800 Satnav £300

    Total approx £5000

    It's actually a little over the 5k mark but hey,
    The wheel's are ultra rare, infact I've not ever seen another disk brake set on any bike, including this thread. The last offer I had for the wheels was £2,100.
    The photo doesn't do the paintwork justice but it's a new chrome paint over satin black (Shadow Chrome) & 2Pak paint is tougher than crappy old powder coating.

    Gorgeous ain't it Jay ;-) Get ya piggy bank open, it's up for sale soon!
