Dammit! It's MY birthday! I kept thinking when I retruned from my ride this morning, I would return home to find a cf Colnago. Maybe a Look, atleast a Lemond, Guess not!:(


Sweet bike. Love the rear wheel!:D

It arrived about 4 days late for my birthday but I lived :). Maybe yours is still on the way;).

Now when I say the dude on the " " " " is really fast, no one will know who i'm talking about.

Sweet, that means I get one chance at a breakaway when no one knows who I am. Maybe I should wear a different jersey tomorrow too.

Very nice ride!

Correctness!

Hi,

Nice looking race bike. Why is it only for crits?

Well one, it's slightly smaller than I would normally ride with a ton of seat to bar drop (16cm), and two I have the look for RR and training. Really the only reason I got it was because I had a spare kit minus wheels lying around from the last bike that was involved in a crash and the insurance replaced it, and double that with the frame replacement discount from cannondale, I paid less than 1000 for the bike, meaning if I crash I can afford to replace it, not so much with the look.

looks like a really good build!!!

Nice.

Nice new ride. I cant wait to try out a Cannondale myself. Enjoy it

I saw you at the race today. I actually recognized your bike. You were talking to someone that had a booth and I was across from you up in the grass. It looked like you were going to be there a while and I needed to start getting ready for my race so I figured I'd come back and introduce myself once I had changed and got my bike. When I went back that way, you were gone.

Cannondales with Campagnolo warm my heart.

yea I was talking to the guy there about coming to our race as a sponsor. Next one.

So tell me how do you like sprinting with it? I find my carbon Soloist has more snap then the CAAD9. But it is a great sprinting machine. The bottom bracket and rear of your System Six is the same as my CAAD9. I really love my C-Dale and I am always pleasantly surprised how comfortable it is for a full aluminum frame.

I will say that it is at least as good as my look, but seems to, im not sure how to put it, track better. The look doesn't feel like it's holding me back, but the cannondale seems to "jump" better if that makes any sense. I'm sure there's really no difference, but racing is 90% mental so whatever works.

No matter how nice your whip, you're still a ******. I'm definitely not racing now ;)
