I guess this is as good a time as any to start a build thread. A few weeks ago, in my first race of the season (and my career, so to speak), I was crashed out and cracked my Supersix Hi-mod (Sram red, with many of the parts below that sat at 13.5lbs). Due to injury, I felt it was as good a time as any to change group sets as well. Super excited for this build. Looking at probably high 13s low 14s.

Just out of interest - why the move away from the high-mod Cannondale frame?

I have the same frame...

Looks like a cool project though - I'll look forward to some pics.

Wanted to try something new, plus I couldn't pass up the pink tarmac. Don't get me wrong, the Hi-Mod is a fantastic frame, but I think the Tarmac may fit a little better too.
Will post pics as stuff comes in

cool build. please post pics of the progress. looks like you got everything covered as far as parts.

Frameset is in! 1560g frame/fork, bearings, hangers, and seat post in a 54

New bike day! Better pics to follow

^^^^^ drools on self!

Hi, nice setup. I was thinking of doing some racing myself and I own a Cannondale EVO with Di2 and other nice bits but I don't want to race it for just that reason , some bozo (could be me ) takes me out and there goes my high $$ bike. I'm thinking of building a Caad 10 as it has the same geometry as the evo super six and if I go down less of a loss

Wow, sweet. I always loved pink bikes. Kind of why I want a Gaulzetti so bad. We need more (in focus) pics!

@Ducati hyp, if funds allowed for another bike I would definitely build a CAAD10 or similar as a race bike, but I'm not sure how much more racing I'll be doing this season anyway. In any case, N+1
Slightly more in focus
