CAAD 5 Saeco - 60cm

I'd coveted this particular frame for a very long time, but realistically the geometry of the frame doesn't quite work for me.
I bought the bike in 2022 and it looked like it had just rolled off the shop floor, complete with Evans sticker.
The paintwork in the sun is really beautiful.
I stripped the original build and built it back up with modern parts and have ridden it in good weather only since. The frame is still in ridiculously clean condition, and the steerer has been cut before I owned it, but has got some space to increase the stack.
Some of the photos show the bike with some carbon wheels that I had it on, but they've been swapped out for a new set of Fulcrum Racing 900 wheels.

The bike rides really nicely, very stiff and fast, just not quite the right fit for me sadly.

The current build is as follows;
CAAD 5 Saeco frame and carbon slice fork - 60cm
Zipp Service Course SL carbon seat post
Selle Italia Flite Ti saddle
Deda Elementi Zero Stem 100mm 17 degree
Bontrager Elite Aero VR-CF bars 42cm
Shimano Ultegra 6800 11 speed groupset (front derailleur is R8000)
Cranks are 172.5mm, cassette is 11-28, chain is a gold KMC
Fulcrum Racing 900 wheel set, ridden for approx 10km total. They have been destickered.
Vittoria Corsa Graphene 2.0 25c tyres - these are used, but have plenty of life left in them
No pedals

Ideally i'd like to get £900 for the build as it is and would prefer to sell complete.
I could be persuaded to split if the right offer came in though.
I am based in Newport / Cardiff, but I work in London and Bristol relatively regularly so could bring it with me if timings work, not really looking to post.

If you'd like to see photos of anything specific just ask

I have a couple of pairs of Saeco gloves that came with the bike too, one still with tags on, that ill throw in with the sale

Really really nice. The stable is full and this is a tad large for me in any case. But GLWS. Bump for a lush bike.

If a split does happen, I'll throw my hat in for dibs on the frame and fork(and the gloves!)

Hmmm what’s the top tube length?

I’ll measure for you this morning

Just measured, it’s 590mm along the top tube from centre of head tube to centre of seat tube

This is amazing! Good luck selling. If you’d post I’d be doing some finances

Where are you based @Tallboy? I could be persuaded

I’m away next week, if there’s no interest in the build by the time I’m back, I’ll look to part it out. You’re first in line for the f+f (and gloves) if it goes that way

How did this pan out?? 👀

Looks like @woooops may be taking it, I’ll keep you posted if it falls through though

No worries thanks
