my caad8 and now we have a supersix 105
the caad8 is a 51 and the supersix is a 52. they feel quite different but i've only got the six a few weeks.

Racing in a pro team jersey? I didn't think that was allowed unless you were registered to the team?0

well if my club got kit in more often, i'd have some lol. it seems more common here anyway, and as a newbie is allowed to make such faux pas, i'll live. !0

Sorry, I wasn't passing judgement on your choice, I just meant that I thought that British Cycling rules didn't allow it. Perhaps I'm wrong though.0

lol no worries, in ni we get a cycling ireland licence so it may well be different, especially in club events.0

Bout ye !! what do you think of the supersix ? i have just ordered one , hoping to get it bout tuesday
Cant wait !! some good deals at the minute0 -
she's dead on. i'd say it feels bigger and more strecthed out than the caad8. it rolls better i think, the seat is stiffer and the gearing feels taller even tho its a 54/39. it certainly doesnt make the £500 caad 8 obsolete but in a racing situation may be better, but that remains to be seen. if anything i'd say the wheels roll better above 24mph and it feels stiffer on hills when pulling on the bars.
i bought it because of the price. certainly its a bit lighter but i'll not bs you and say its the best thing since sliced bread, the caad 8 sora is total value.
