Cannondale Cyclocross RX800

The Good: Light and fast, and extremely versatile; I've gone camping by putting a rack, panniers, a tent and sleeping bag on the back. Wheels are rock solid.

The Bad: It was a MUCH softer ride when I rode with Spinergy SPOX, but was too concerned about wheel failure.

The Ugly: Nothing . . . I love it! Seriously though, the brakes have no stopping power. Radius brakes suck.

The bike has some interesting history. It was formerly raced pro by Alex Candelario (Big Shark/Cannondale). More here at my site.
