I re-ventured into the road biking world when I bought this Cannondale Supersix hi-mod frameset, and a year later, I have decided its just not for me! For the last time hopefully...
So here she is, up for sale.. a unique 1x11 di2 setup on a classy lightweight frame.
The frame is 58cm, running a BB30a bottom bracket as this is the hi mod frame. The forks are full carbon too.
For the drive chain i have used the Cannondale SI chainset, with hope PF30 bottom bracket (for extra stiffness), shimano XT/Ultegra chain, Shimano SLX 11-42 cassette and shimano M8050 long cage rear derailleur with clutch to keep the chain on the correct sprockets.
The shifters are Shimano ultegra 6850 Di2 and I am using the under stem junction box and BTR-2 Di2 battery.
She's got a cannondale carbon post and bontrager paradigm 142mm saddle which I find to be quite comfortable.
I was originally running carbon handlebars and carbon wheels but I have sold those to a friend who is not giving up as easily as I am (what can I say.. I am an offroader). So the handlebar, stem and wheels are by far the weaker points of the bike.
The handlebar and stem are Pinnacle and the wheels are DT Swiss R1850 wheels, both sealed bearings, both could do with servicing but they roll OK and are true.
As you can see from the photo's there is plenty of steerer tube to play with! BUT be warned. I am still using the FSA bung that originally comes with the bike. This bung only supports the steerer for 40mm below the top cap so if you want to slam the stem or run other spacers on top of the stem you will need a long steerer bung if you want to keep the steerer tube the same length.
I bought this frame online last year it was second hand and already had all the marks you see in the photo's... The previous owner was a nice guy and informed me he had rubbed away his non drive side chainstay with some 28mm tyres... So he got the frame professionally repaired! The paint around the non drive side bottom bracket shell and the top end of the chainstay is a slightly different texture because of this. I have ridden the bike many many miles since and have not noticed a creak or flexi frame syndrome.
I am hoping to get £1000 ono for this. You're welcome to come and view it, I live in West London and I'm happy to cycle it halfway to somewhere... let me know!
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
