Scroll down. Here's the really weird thing, I typed in "CAAD9 2010" in google and up came all of these websites about what I typed in, and on one of them there's a picture of a CAAD9 with the HANDMADE IN THE USE decal right there on the seatstay. Crazy, huh?

That's just a commie conspiracy. Someone could have just bought that sticker and put it on there. :rolleyes:

On another note, "commie" is in the Firefox dictionary. Go figure.

Good point. So far still no solid proof of a 2010 Handmade in USA CAAD9.

Edit: Anyone taking delivery of one, that is.

Chill.

I'm picking up, the bike tomorrow. You'll see that it's still handmade in the USA. If it's not, I'll get my deposit back.

Pics will be up tomorrow evening.

No. They had none in stock. I happened to walk in there when the Cannondale rep was there addressing a warranty issue, and ordered directly from him. I'm sure they can order you one though. The only CAAD9 they had in stock was a 2009 52cm CAAD9-6.

I would have picked it up immediately, but I had to work, and they're closed on Sundays.

wrong!!

Considering that I just looked at a '10 CAAD9-5 in the LBS TODAY, and CLEARLY saw "Handmade in the USA" on the seatstay, I'll venture to say that you're a farking moron.

Nah, man, that's crazy talk.

It's not like Alcoa is a portmanteau of "ALuminum COrporation of America" or anything, sheesh.

The forks have been made in Taiwan by Kenisis for years.

I ordered a '10 CAAD9 CX on July 27th, shop said it would take 2-4 weeks...hopefully I get some of the good luck juju you have and it shows up before cross season.

Here is a pic of the frame, at least it is something...and I will definitely post a pic MY bike when it arrives...if you care about cross bikes.
