Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Sorry it's a Cross Bike, but I use it on my mountain road leisure rides.
It is a Cannondale though, and I think it rocks.

If it's a Cannondale it's a worthy bike IMO. Love the touches of red color. Did you apply the red dots to the wheels, or?
The rear derailleur cable between the last cable stop and derailleur looks short - is that unique to the type of derailleur?

Thankyou for your kind words. Yep I applied the dots myself and they reflect at night and in tunnels. The derailleur cable is correct. It is a Sram X7 which is designed that way for a crisp change.

Nice bike neo****zy! Would like to see it with matching stem and seatpost just for kicks and giggles. With your saddle pushed as far forward as it is you could get away with a zero degree seat post and save a little bit of weight

Thanks! I was looking at the USE Alien Carbon seatpost, but I heard many mixed reviews about them. So far the FSA's work fine for now, but my eyes are always wandering.

I really dig the EVO, really nice. Black tape and a black saddle would make the bike very stealth.

Wow, thank you! that means a lot!

just got back from the bike shop. it sucked to see that I'm SOOO close to flat 15 but yet still so far away. Not sure what I'm gonna do yet to get it down


Cut the steering tube flush to stem which gives it a cleaner look also

Hi,

I knew that this thread existed but I didn't look for it...

Finished building this SuperSix EVO last Saturday and I raced it (three times) on Sunday:


Most of the parts came off my prior SuperSix Hi-Mod. The new parts are heavier than the old parts, yet the EVO came in at a surprisingly low 13.95 lbs.

looking good man, I don't see where you could lose weight. That is a 100mm stem, would going 90 drop you to 15? or would that throw your fit off to much. I figure if you get the same stem just shorter you may cut a few grams atleast. Just a thought.

Here are my options:

-ti-bolt kit for stem, seatpost bolt, RD and FD?
-cables
-DA rear cassette ($300 retail though)
-DA RD

Extereme and expensive options are but not realistic for me at this time:
-wheelset-go lighter clincher or Go tubular (Dont really want to go tubular for convinience purposes though)
-Si hollogram crankset (probably find one used for $500 or less)

You would probably have to buy all those parts...and it still may not get you into the 14's. Alot of the small parts the scale won't even see.

I've swapped bars, brakes, saddles...the 30-40gr differences in each part...the scale did not see. Went to 100 gram heavier bars...bike is still at 15.02.

Numbers on paper vs actually on the bike are very different.

Wheels will make the biggest impact...

This bike would look super-hot with either dark blue or black bar tape.

That sherbert-green doesn't match at all. Ick.

Nice wheels, btw!
