Hi guys! Just checking in with the Cult. I'd love to pick up a 12 someday, but for now here is my '13 10 built up with 6800 and RS81 C24. Still my favorite ride!

I have a 2011 CAAD10. Lots of upgrades but can't get myself to get a new bike. Just last week I was in Colorado and rented a carbon Tarmac Elite. OMG did I miss my bike. Everything about my CAAD I prefer over the Tarmac. I've been wanting to get a whole new bike for a while but this experience has totally changed my mind. CAAD's are fantastic.

If you have DI2 or eTap and would want to plug that CAAD12 frame holes, you might be interested in this.
I happened to watch one of the guy's youtube video while researching my issue of how to run brake wires into the CAAD12 frame.

I'm thinking of getting them but if anyone knows a better/cheaper option?

Hi all. I just got this bad boy from a guy who upgraded it with a better wheelset and Shimano 105s. I don't know much about road bikes yet (I rode an old school Fuji Fixie for years prior), but this appears to have a carbon fork and it feels like the bottom tube is carbon (is that even possible?). It rides pretty light and I feel like it is a great bike for me to log miles on (I do about 100 a week and slowly growing to around 140ish). Anyone familiar with this? I believe it is a 2004.

Do you all think I can put 25s on this bike? Pretty sure the Mavik Ksyrium wheels can handle that - how wide can I go on this frame?
EDIT - I can put 25s on it. And did. Now has Vittoria Rubbino pros. They feel real nice compared to the 23s.

^^^ That is good to know. I was thinking about putting a 25 on the back of my Caad 10 too.

Was out today on my CAAD9 and got hit by a car in the front wheel/fork/handlebar. I'm fine, but need to get a new fork as it was directly impacted. Suggestions for a full carbon fork with the same dimensions as the stock one? Or looking at ebay - does a super six fork work with the CAAD9?
