The stock models with 105 don't count. I wanna see some blingage.

That's a bummer, I guess mine doesn't count since it has 105. Pity.

You have an SRM. That offsets the penalty. Post it anyway!! :thumb:

SushiJoe 06-24-09 08:25 AM

That really isn't the point of a CAAD9. The people that are buying this frame are not the people that are spending lots of money on upgrades.

I would have used regular silver cranks, but the cheapest option for 165mm happened to be the black ones. silver 105 was $50 more :rolleyes:

botto 06-24-09 08:45 AM

i wasn't referring to the color choices.

I've seen your bike before, and it looks good.

I want to see some interesting Caad9 set ups. Not hating on 105, but I know what a stock Caad9 looks like.

Pablo. 06-24-09 08:58 AM

A friend of mine just built up a Caad9 with the white/red color scheme with superrecord.

SushiJoe 06-24-09 09:03 AM

There's a possibility a black CAAD9 will be popping up on bike forums with SRAM Red, BB30 and an Easton EC90 fork. However, I can neither confirm nor deny this statement.

botto 06-24-09 09:05 AM

ride more, buy less.

Pablo. 06-24-09 09:08 AM

?? The BB30 model hasn't come out yet... The bike you described sounds incredibly nice though.

I'm thinking of getting a Caad9 myself. See, if I wait for the 2010 model, I get a BB30. But its also made overseas. If I get this years model, no BB30, but I get the frame the last year its made in the US.
