Six13 Shots: Drool Alert
You asked, we deliver. Photos of my 2006 Cannondale Six13 Team One Dura Ace. I replaced the seat with a Specialized and the tires with Contis. I have over 2000 miles on it. LOVING THIS BIKE. Just doesn't get better than this baby.
Please try not to drool on your keyboards boys.
Special aside to Euro: MADE IN AMERICA. Probably bult by a Nascar fan named Mellow Johnny.

That's some serious drop on that saddle nose. Over all - sweet bike. I've not huge on Cannondales but the Six13 does have some very sweet visual elements to it.

That boat anchor saddle goes next in my weight weenied obsession to lighten this ride. I'll let you know if my rear end protests too much : ).

The brifters and crank ruin it for me, but aside from those it looks good.

What's a 'brifter'. Is that a typo for 'shifter'? And why would Dura Ace shifters/cranks (referred to as 'jewel like' by everyone who sees them) spoil this for anybody? Is this Campyitis?

Looks great! You appear to be afflicted with the same disease I have - unusually long legs in proportion to the rest of your body.
And of course, I'll throw in the obligatory and totally meaningless - flip it!

Brifters. That's a signal from God that it's bedtime. Good night weenies.

patentcad - doh, I'd almost forgotten about that back problem of yours. Glad that it's working for you. I have the reverse problem where my hands can't take too much weight or they ache badly and the last thing I need is wrist/hand problems being a programmer.

One thing that puts me off Cannondale a bit is the garish plastering of the brand name on just about every tube on the bike.
[edit] I wish i had one.
