  • I've been thinking about this overnight, and maybe what I should do is to stick a cheap second hand power meter on my cross bike to train with over winter, then see what the market is like for road frames at the start of 2013.

    New, shiny toys are always very seductive, but I'd hate to build (say) a Venge, and then just not get on with it.

    I do love the way my System Six rides.

    Argh!

    If it where me, and I had a taste for Cannondales. I'd wait. Aside from the fact that its an amazing frameset. You'd simply love it more. Not all decisions are purely performance based.

  • if we are looking at the business of marginal gains

    I suspect most of us are far enough below our performance potential ceiling for 'marginal gains' to be relevant.

  • I could upgrade the wired SRM that's on the bike (that won't fit on the Evo frame) to the latest, wireless version, and put a compact one on the cross bike, for less than the cost of an Evo frame.

    I'd then have the ability to swap head units between the bikes*, and train with power through the winter.

    If I then upgraded to the Evo in spring it'd be easier as everything would bolt on, rather than having to mess around with power meter incompatibility.

    *And use the Garmin 705 as a head unit for when I wanted navigation on either bike

    You're a minute faster than me on Q10/26, I need to find a lot of marginal gains!

  • Clip on TT bars, skinsuit, helmet, an extra 10 hours a week on the bike...

  • I do love the way my System Six rides.

    Argh!

    Then why the hell are you toying with the idea of changing frame?

  • I could sell you a shiny red SIX frameset.

    It's lighter than the SystemSix...

  • Clip on TT bars, skinsuit, helmet, an extra 10 hours a week on the bike...

    Yep, I'll catch you yet Gadget.

  • And it's red.

  • And red bikes are faster.

  • Fact.

  • TW2- would you be interested in a freshly serviced SRM (good for ~1,400 hours until it'll require a battery change now), with head-unit, two wiring harnesses, 53/39 rings and Cannondale Si cranks?

  • I think you know the answer to that.

    Although - Wired? Hmmm....

    You make me good price?

  • Do it Twickers!

  • I do you good price. It's in immaculate condition, me being me I bought all new consumables when I had it serviced.

  • Go for it.

    If you're not sure about buying from Dammit, it's worth contacting Edwardes as I'm sure they have good feedback for him.

  • Then why the hell are you toying with the idea of changing frame?

    Rich coming from you Ed. Hasn't every bike you've ever owned been the best ever, "bike for life" for the entire 13 minutes until you listed it for sale.

  • Rich coming from you Ed. Hasn't every bike you've ever owned been the best ever, "bike for life" for the entire 13 minutes until you listed it for sale.

    Truth!

  • Lolzapulloza

  • Rich coming from you Ed. Hasn't every bike you've ever owned been the best ever, "bike for life" for the entire 13 minutes until you listed it for sale.

    I'll have you know that my current bike is my bike for life.

    Hold on, let me figure out
    which one I'm talking about.
