cannondale as frameset?
 

i like the track bike, and while the components are nice (dura-ace, ultegra bb, etc)...i wonder if the frameset is available, and for how much?

i'm debating the purchase of an aluminum frame here. not totally sure.

Cannondale will sell you any of their bikes as a frameset but they tend to price them to make it so that you should buy the full bike. If you work at a C'Dale shop or ride for one you can get smoking pro deals on the frames though...pro deal for a CAAD9 road frame is less than $500.

thanks...the caad9 is exactly what caught my eye. spendy full bike, but a part of me wonders if i can pull a few strings and get a cheaper deal...

i am getting a caad 9 with custom paint for 500....the shop is getting them for even cheaper (i think its a lot cheaper but they wont say)

new retail on the caad9 road frame is $1600. crazy.

It isn't. I don't know how they are doing that but that is rediculously cheap. Like, less than I would pay working at a Cannondale dealer.

it cant be any cheaper. im pretty sure you're getting wholesale pricing on that one, if not better. i'll check tomorrow at work and let you know.

Do you guys have a link to a picture of the CAAD9 track frame? I cannot see it on the site; maybe I am getting dumber?
