Very nice looking ride. I really like the overall look of the bike. Hope it's a killer a ride as it is to look at. Have fun with it.

VSChippy, I'm truly Caad envious. My wife says, "go ahead, buy another bike". I can't in good conscience bring myelf to do it. But I did score an eBay purchase this week ... N+1 coming for my wife! Pictures to follow in a couple months. It's a build project.

Thanks For all the great comments, I am very happy with the bike.
They had a sale for the Tour Down Under Picked it up for $1800 AU
I know still expensive for an aluminium bike but I really like the way it rides.
So for me worth every cent

C-Dales carry a premium and rightfully so.
