I respectfully disagree.

2013's black/blue looks okay (below), but definitely not comparable to the regular CAAD10 geometries.

Wow, bought new in 2013!! And they are even being nice enough to throw in a free "neck extender"... Sounds like a bit of a torture device...

I want to save that frame so bad.

I just got a little sick to my stomach when I opened that link.

Woah. I want that black/blue frame. I enjoy a good aqua blue. If I had to pick a favorite color, I'd pick aqua blue. Not as classy as black/white or black/black IMHO, but I'd still ride it - if, of course, the geometry was set to a men's.

CAADX perhaps?

A priceless CL ad! Far as I can tell, it's nothing more than an old-school Bad Boy rigid, probably circa early 2000s; CAAD 3 (see pic of c/s) vintage. Pretty sure those are 559 wheels w/slicks. Nice bike, but certainly not 'as advertised'!

Looks like it....

I have been seeing some "cyclocross caad8" sales on ebay where the frame says caad8 but it has cantis.....maybe something like that.

A CAAD 10X? I think he's listing it as a CAAD 10-3 but I'm not sure since I went blind when I first saw it........

Finally got up the guts to post the CAAD 9 I built up. Gathered parts from here and there and put it together.

I know the stem is grotesque but I'm in a quandary as to whether I keep the CAAD or move the components to a Ridley Orion frame that I have (I know, heresy on this page). I rode the Ridley last year and thought it was the bomb. But then I got the CAAD frame and put it together. I'm wondering if the CAAD isn't the one. When I first put the CAAD together, I was like 'wow!'. It seems like a beast on hills and just flies.

I know, just build up the Ridley (thermalattorney has just the stuff I need!) and keep both. But that puts me at N+3 since I have a Synapse and a Trek (for riding with my daughters). Decisions, decisions.

I am 6'3" so this bike is suitable for a medium to tall man.
A flat black frame with glossy lettering
Black rims.
Precision Shimano Deore thumb shifters.
A well padded thin race seat.
Quick release front & rear wheel hubs.
Tall seat post.
A neck extender was added for more comfort because of my height.

FREE EXTRAS:
helmet.
smart phone holder.
neck extender.
2 water bottle holders.
long seat post.

This 24 speed Cannondale has only one owner and was purchased new as a birthday present. I no longer have time to ride so I must sell. It was purchased at $1280.99 in June of 2013 but due to usage i am willing to go as low as $900.00 o.b.o..
The Cannondale bike is in very good shape with low milage and only a few blemishes to the flat black frame the shows up shiny(rubbed by legs).


There is something seriously wrong with that bike. Check out the fork! Looks like an old style steel fork. I'm all for customizing your bike to your style but this is sad.

No hydroformed tubes, cable stays on top of too tube, ol steel fork,etc
This is definitely an old frame, I wanna buy this bike someone lend me $900

That Craigslist bike says "CAAD3" on the frame so no "CAAD10" there, probably around 1996?

dvdslw 02-04-14 07:01 PM

Anyone tried to re-badge their bike? I have a 2013 CAAD10 Black Inc. and I love the bike but I've noticed the lettering "CAAD10" is coming off on the rear frame tubes. I can only assume that they can be removed with acetone? If so I was thinking about either removing them and leaving it be or removing all of them and re-lettering the whole bike with either white or the team green like the 2014 Black Inc. only more traditionally with large lettering on the downtube, fork, and seat tube? Or just remove them all and go for that stealth look?

Team Sarcasm 02-04-14 07:09 PM

Doesn't Cannondale have a paint warranty? Like for the first year they cover it (as always the bike cant be crashed or anything)

but removing your lettering will void your warranty if I remember the fine print right.......

if you repaint or do anything to the paint your whole warranty is void bro. At least thats what I remember reading when I read the fine print.

I have the same bike and none of my lettering is coming off, granted I've only had the bike for a short period of time. I wish I could take off that giant gold stripe, all the gold is fugly.

There are some deals still around for the few 2013 that I have seen listed. There was a Force model in 2012 but no longer available. Best of luck with the search if you decide to go after one.

Bill

I paid $1520 + tx a month ago for my 2013 CAAD 10-4 Black/White with 105c pedals new from LBS. Total was $1800 with taxes for the bike, pedals and a new pair of Bontrager shoes. Taxes up here ar 15% :-(
