I love fools that say the CAAD9 is good only for crits. Sure I rode mine in a crit last night, but last weekend I rode it in a century on saturday followed by a 3 hour group ride Sunday. This weekend I will race it again but the following week I will ride it 200+ miles of gravel/ limestone while pulling a trailer full of beer, food and a tent (For this trip I am cheating and running 32 tires (yes they fit fine)).

Again, If the ride is too stiff, let 5 PSI out. problem solved.
