I've put over 100 miles on it since finishing the build a couple days ago and I'm not disappointed by purchasing a CAAD9. It's a great bike.

i think you all will be pleased to know i bit the pavement this morning and cracked the aero extension, busted the promax light and dented the singulator conversion arm... wont have time until the weekend but ill have to go back to tiagra and i put on my c2 aerobars that actually only function to you know... make me slightly more agressive with the speed.
.... zero damage done to the CAAD9 or the Mavic Elites... the vicodin es tabs are in full effect so no pain either !
....i can see the grins now....

I know I don't have the sacred white garage door and mine isn't the newest to be had but I like her and she treats me well.

Thanks! It's actually a 2010 and yes, completely built from the frame up. Total weight comes to 7150 grams with pedals.
I wouldn't have bought the FSA rings if the cranks came with Cannondale ones, but the SI SL cranks are hard to find and the ones I bought did not come with chainrings.
I've put over 100 miles on it since finishing the build a couple days ago and I'm not disappointed by purchasing a CAAD9. It's a great bike.

In fact, the cannondale rep seems to tell my shop that people will have to wait up to 2 mos to get their framesets! ;[
Jeeze. This waiting is killing me.

Haha better to wait than to not get them at all. I'll have to call our Cdale rep again and see why they weren't willing to give me just the frame last time haha.

They did accidentally screw up my order and sent me a 2009 BB30 frame in black and red. Not quite sure where it came from. As far as I know the only 2009 BB30 CAAD9's were team issue bikes and this one had a standard paint job and no team issue decal. They quickly fixed the problem though. Both frames took ~2 weeks to arrive at my LBS.

I am thinking about purchasing a 2010 CAAD9 and I am interested in hearing what the users on this forum who own the stock bike think about the tektro brakes that Cannondale specs...Are you happy with them or would you recommend that I upgrade?...What about the stock Shimano wheelset specced on all the models except for the Dura Ace one?...

Don't make your bike look like this!
You'll be hated until the end of days...and then some!
