edited February 2011 in Your road bikes
Bought this to replace the Cannondale SuperSix Hi Mod I knackered at Christmas.
Got it excluding wheels (comes with Ksyriums normally) as I had some Spinergys which I have since sold for the HED Ardennes (which incidentally aren't right for me at the moment)
HEDs are for sale if anyone's interested ? (I'm a bit too close to the weight limit of 90kg on them for comfort :oops: )

Swapped out the WCS Carbon Matrix stem for the white WCS one you see, the WCS carbon post for the USE Alien and the Arione Braided CX for the SLR Fibra.
Sram Force throughout
Carbon WCS Carbon Evolution Superlogic bars
Ultegra 12-25 cassette
Michelin Pro3 tyres
TIME RXS Carbon pedals
Not had much chance to ride it yet so can't really comment on the ride yet.
6.7kg including pedals makes it the lightest bike I've ever had :D
Now I just need to get myself to a weight that will do it justice :oops:

    I'd rather you said you all hated it than no comment at all :cry:

    Looks good.

    Do you prefer it to your old bike before you smashed it?

    It's a nice bike mate - it's very simplistic but business like if you know what i mean!

    I'm trying to but the Cannondale was brilliant, only had it 3 months and was just getting used to it.
    Need to get some real miles in on the Addict to make a proper decision.
    Looks wise I think the dale wins

    Pity you're selling the wheels as they're a great combo with the frame.

    Wheels do co-ordinate well, I may try them again tomorrow, used them Wednesday and they felt better than they did the first time.

    I think the scott pictured looks better than the cannon pictured.

    Really not ridden it much yet but first impressions are that it's not as comfy as the dale.
    As I said I need to get out more and fingers crossed the weathers getting a bit better.
    Gonna take it to Majorca at the end of March for a few days - if I don't like it there I never will.
    Sure as the weather gets better white will seem like a better idea than it currently does.
