Just bought these:
It's the Williams Aurora SLC with carbon rails. The rails are oval is shape.
Will this fit my stock Cannondale C3 seat post adapter or do I need to buy this:

Will this ritchey adapter fit the C3?

If that position works for you then great. Personally I wouldn't like it because your drops are not level. I like to have my drops level so that would mean rotating your bars back down and sliding your shifters up to get them level. Otherwise riding it the way you have it set up, your forearms will most likely hit the top bar.

That is a great saddle for the price. The Cannondale post will work fine with nothing additional. Two bolt systems that clamp from the top and bottom need nothing. The adapter you posted is only for specific Ritchey seatposts that clamp from the side using a single bolt.
I'm interested in giving the Romin, and Toupe saddles a shot. The prospect of not having to order a new seatpost and/or adapter might mean I go carbon rails.

As long as the width of the rail is the same it will work. I won't say all carbon rails as there are some outliers with weird rails that you will most likely never consider. Basically all the mainstream carbon rails will be fine.

Just pulled the image into Photoshop... The wheels are 'shopped in... Sneaky bugger. You can see a halo around the tires, the wheel at the chainstays doesn't run through and there's a bit of retouching at the back of the rear wheel. Nice effort though. Good eyes for picking it up.

The crank doesn't match, he uncut his steering tube and put the spacers back. Sad
