If I'm ever forced to sell a bike I would keep my Fuji Cross Pro and sell the CAAD9. I LOVE My fuji and will probably end up putting more miles on it than the Cannondale this year. It's VERY comfortable and I've been switching back and forth between the 32mm knobby-ish tires that came on it, and 25mm armadillos. Very versatile. Yes, the brakes do suck but hopefully putting some new pads on it will help a little.
