    If you do, this is a better (though price) option for a nice conversion:

    I used one on a Ribble winter frame for a year with no problems.


    Did you buy from a UK supplier or ship it over (how much did that cost)?

    It was shipped over, took about a week and cost £100 all in from memory.

    But the CAAD9 is like the best aluminium race/commuter frame around the £1000 mark (when dripped with 105). That's like the biggest most competitive price point and that bike stands out like a shinning beacon of hope!

    It's also sold out (NEW) throughout the UK,having been replaced by the CAAD10 which seems to be unavailiable until June/July

    The CAAD 9 was also the last Cannondale frames to bear the "Handmade in the USA" label

    Gaz, for the love of all the i hold dear, I implore you, Don't do it.
