im deciding between two road bikes but i dont know wich one to choose.

http://www.cannondale.com/2012-caad10-5-105-20093
i cant find 1st one with english specs. Ghost has mainly ultegra equipment except few things and it's 300 euros cheaper.
But wich one has better frame? some people said to me that Cannondale has better frame and they also said that better frame is more important than slightly better equipment but i dont know what to choose so im looking for some more advices And Ghost frame is: Race Actinum DB AFT

Frame and forks are where you should spend the money as all the other bits are easily changed as you get better/feel the need for shiny things.
Cannondale for me as I believe that the frame is one of the best.
problem is everyone who replies will likely have a different opinion so you will not necessarily get the easy way out.
Frame and forks are the key though as they contribute the most the the ride of the bike and it's longevity.Yellow is the new Black.0 -
Caad 10 for surehttp://veloviewer.com/SigImage.php?a=3370a&r=3&c=5&u=M&g=p&f=abcdefghij&z=a.png

I'd go for the Ghost...but that's because I've got one. Albeit, the lower specced Ghost Race 5000 with Shimano 105. Lovely bike. Wouldn't trade it for a Cannondale, no way. But, personal preference and all...
The US made CAAD's have smoother welding, the newer Chinese ones are mass produced, so the welding is slightly rougher in appearance. My Ghost has very visual welding and, at first, was off putting, but are you going to be looking at the welds when you're riding? No. It's a bike, not a showpiece.
Here is a link to a page in English, as you said you couldn't find one.

first of all thanks for all replyes and second of all: i found really good price for Cannondale SuperSix 105 and i want to know how good is SuperSix's carbon frame? i mean is it worth to buy or should i buy CAAD10?0

Super six is the way to go if you want carbon, Aluminium is underated in my opinion and cannondale have over 25 years experience of making Ally frames so that is where my money goes.Yellow is the new Black.0
