anyone with experience on a CAAD 10 Black Edition 2013? and help with buying new bike
Saw a sale on this bike at lbs.
Cannondale CAAD10 Black Inc. C - Kozy's Chicago Bike Shops | Chicago Bike Stores, Bicycles, Cycling, Bike Repair
Anyone with experience on this bike would like to share their thoughts on this bike? Any cons/pros? How can I find the model number for the group set?
If money is the a big factor, how would one compare this agains SUPERSIX EVO HI-MOD 2 DURA ACE? In what scenario would I wish to have this SuperSIX eve rather than a CAAD 10 Black Edition?
I am considering buying a new bike now and have found it isn't an easy decision to make. If my budget could be anywhere from $3000 to $6000, what would you guys recommend? I use it mostly for cross training and would like to go longer distance in near future as I am progressing in my training. Thanks for your kind help in advanced.

I have a caad9 so can't comment directly on the caad10 but I do have the Evo HiMod and it's a great bike. I like my caad but the Evo is my go to bike. I've done a 200KM brevets and the Triple Bypass ride on it and it's been great. The black edition caad10 is a pretty sick bike and if you want electronic shifting the price is good. Unless you find a killer deal you'll pay more for the HiMod Evo and have mechanical. Both are great bikes and will serve you well and both have their fans. Personally, if money is not the issue, get the Evo.

I rode the 2013 black edition CAAD 10 and really liked it but I worried about long distance comfort. The bike really accelerates when you stand on it. The Ultegra Di2 is 10 speed and the frame is strictly electronic with no provisions for mechanical.
Nice bike. Buy it if you like it.

Great frame. Most people will have a hard time (if we could do this) tell the diff between the ride on the 10.
Proof? Aluminum at that retail price. And we sell them to racers. If you wrekc it it's not going to kill you to replace it price-wise versus a HM.
And that is a great price. It's about what an employee would pay of they bought a bike off the rack (which they'd be nuts to do with EP) so good price.
