Selling 2018 Cannondale CAAD12 road bike; Ultegra, Rim brakes, brand new 58cm full black. Unused and still in original packaging, photos below.
Looking for £1450, located SW London but could bring to central London (West End or City).
Selling because while waiting for it to be delivered I hired another bike and decided to buy it.

not wishing to reply to my own post but wanted to point out that after posting this the penny dropped and another 50mins web research tells me that to keep using my original 110BCD Sugino GT cranks I'd be looking for a 48T 110 BCD ring.
Notice there's many a post about these but all in the wanted and none in the for sale.
Have tried following the various (BMX) suggestions and cant find any 48T to reassure me they're obviously SS 1/8 and if I did it'd be £40- guess this is why BLB suggest I replace the whole chainset for £65
it was daylight when I started this research.....and now it's just a few hours til I have to get up for work.

Hi Guys
first post - be gentle. have read around Sheldon and have been reading the forum for a while and tried to follow rules for newbies but I'm sure besides all the welcomes someone will point out where I haven't conformed to protocol (kindly intentioned to stop me embarassing myself again)
Anyway there seemed to be enough positive about the Record Sprint so when I saw one right size on ebay I grabbed it (£62 if you're interested).
looks good....worst of it is wheels trashed....but I figured I'd be setting up with a flip-flop and picked up a set off a mate's Langster when he upgraded his hoops and fortunately the triangle width / axle length is same
trying to get it spinning with as little investment as possible and keen to learn to do the jobs myself rather than hand it all over.guess I should go for a new chainset (48T)....but is there something that'd work with the existing BB or should I bite the bullet and fit new BB same time? went to forum recommended BLB and new BB was £15 and £15 to fir and then £65 for chain set and I felt £95 was a bit higher than I'd planned.
alternatively I like the gold cranks and it looked like someone was running one single speed on the original chainset with the small cog removed ? would the chainline be ok? would I be better off with a thicker ring & chain (1/8) anyway I have seen that 48:16 was recommended starting ratio and even though I push a big gear on my road bike the 52T might be a bit much (or easier on the downhills fixed?).....is it possible to get a 48T ring intended as single onto this crankset?
Can anyone recommend the Driveline Track Chainset as I could pick one of these up new with an English BB for £42 which is better than £95 at BLB much as I'd like to give them the work.
cant find the answers already within forum and Sheldon's great section on Raleighs is all pre-80s.
sorry for rambling....if I wasn't so new I could post this as two or three more specific questions.
great forum and if anyone is interested in parts I take off the Sprint I'd be glad to see them get good home (especially in return for advice)
Good thought,
but i wouldn't get refund as it is an insurance replacement for my son's 2017 Caad12 for which we got a voucher to spend. Happily ordered new caad12 but as it wasnt going to be delivered before L2P trip he borrowed a 2014 SuperSix and fell in love with that and so we now own both. Genuine reason for sale and a chance for someone.
