My Cannondale Bad Boy conversion

I wanted a Caffeine but with a Rohloff hub, however they never made it, so I made my own. This started life as a 2008 Bad Boy Rohloff, and I rebuilt the wheels with Mavic XM719 disc rims. The headshok packed up not long afterwards, which naturally gave me a good excuse to fit the lefty to finish off the build.
Its not the lightest thing ever, but I absolutely love it. The lines are so clean, no unsightly cables (all internal routing), and with no converntional rear mech dropouts it looks awesome! It rides superbly too, I'll never go back to Shimano now having used a Rohloff.
Other minor changes include a ti railed Nisenne Saddle, Thomson post, Easton riser bar. The standard kit is pretty good as it is, it came with Juicy 7's and a headsight integrated stem/Exposure LED front light.
Hope you like it anyway, its something a little different to the norm.
