I just saw the six-13 an hour ago. A Cannondale rep had the bike (a pre-production model) with him at a lbs demo day. The bike looks great and is incredibly light. Unfortunately, no demo ride (the rep hadn't even ridden the bike yet). The bike I saw was in a grey-black. While it was nice, I like the one in the picture in red, personally. Real tempting, particularly with Record everything. Listed at $5,799 with Record, $4,399 with DA, and $2,999 with Centaur. It had a FSA k-Wing Carbon handlebar that was really nice.

Anyone thinking about getting this bike? I was really tempted!

I've already ridden it and it's a great bike! The two holes in the headtube are weird but it's a nice ride.

I like the construction technique. Glad to see that someoen is finally starting to improve the constuction techniques and not just glueing some tubes into somemetal.

Judgement reserved till I ride it.
