Cannondale feedback appreciated
I am looking at a couple of bikes local to me and it is just so complicated when you don't know new bikes but ...one is an '08 Cannondale Six 13 6 for $900 bucks (60 miles on it) and the other is an '04 Cannondale R1000R almost new for $1100. Except for the components they seem like comparable bikes but I guess what I'm hoping for is someone with experience with the bikes to give me some feed back.
Much appreciated!!
Mike

Are both the same size? And, are they the correct size for you? Those are the first two questions that need to be answered. A bike that doesn't fit, no matter the cost, is of less value than one that does.

Bike ≠ Car ≠ Ped.
Even though it's got Tiagra, I'd take that Six13 (again, if it fits).
They're both good frames, though, even though the R1000's CAAD7 is a couple incremental-generations older.
