I have heard they are kinda a porker of a bike. It will make your 10 feel that much better though :p

Got back Monday from riding with my brother in the mountains around lynchburg, va this weekend. Ive had my caad9 for a little less than two weeks now and I'm in love. It was my first time away from flat eastern nc and I was pleasantly surprised at how well I was able to do up there. That bike rides like a dream and helped me keep up with him on his caad10.

Still no pics though because I'm too dumb to bring my phone with me to take pictures in some of the pretty places we rode. Maybe I can get out for a ride around here this weekend if this hurricane doesn't make the roads too messy.

Thanks for the heads up man, and I will be honest in saying I am not educatd on the subject. I have seen some really nice PC jobs done on bikes but I would hate for mine to be the mishap. You have me nervous now, I was really considering pulling the trigger on a PC job in the next week or two.


Thinking about it, I may give plasti dipping a try on the rear triangle...

I feel like thats pretty safe from being rubbed off :p

And since it's not paint it won't void any warranty :D

I've been following this thread for some time now and checking my local Craigslist regularly. We'll the stars aligned for me last weekend and my wife gave my the go ahead to buy. So far I'm loving it! It's definitely as smooth of a ride as everyone claims. Now time to get my engine in shape.

Just wondering, but how much did you get it for? : 3

It wasn't in perfect condition. Couple scratches from being in garage leaned up against car. Otherwise it was brand new and never rode. Paid $1600.

VERY nice rig mate. Up until recently I was running my Team colours frame with DA7800 - replaced by Ult6800.

Stem has come down a little bit since then also!

Great build and a beautiful bike. Not sure what's left that stock....

teknolad 07-07-14 09:48 AM

Thanks! The saddle, stem, fork and handlebar are still stock... for now. Just got the top of the fork cut and handlebar lowered.

Thanks for sharing! Good to see that not everyone is rocking a slammed stem.

J/K of course :)

I have a mate who rides that frameset.

Thanks! Yeah I was doing a few laps at prospect on Sunday. I go there quite frequently so I'll be looking out for Black Inc.'s flying by lol.

That's the 2014 10-4. I would love to get one and build it up with 6800 instead of the Rival, then throw my BOYD wheels on it.

O MA GAAAA, I LOVE the black and green synapse.

http://fcdn.roadbikereview.com/attac...36020166_n.jpg

@TS maybe you can help me with something. What are the difference between the two photos? Are the top the colors for the aluminium synapse while the middle are for the carbons? Or are some for the synapse 5 while the others are for synapse 6. To my understanding the frames of the synapse 6/5/4/3 are exactly the same exact in colorways.

Also, does anybody know whether or not this is possible.

Bike A came with disc brakes. Bike B came with Rim brakes. You take only the frame from Bike A and use all the components from Bike B. Or are disc braked bikes have a special designed frame.

Does anybody recomend a cadd dealer near the chicagoland area? Im looking to sell mt TCR and get an Evo but the LBS does carry any in stock to look at and test out.

Top ones are definitely carbon as well.

Wait so are we actually getting 6 different colors of the synapse?

Wow. Unless each color is reserved for Synapse 6/5/4/3.

Anybody have any idea whether the rim brake versions will be identical in color with their disc brake counterparts or are rim brake synapses being phased out.
