New SuperSix :)

iandennis

Just wanted to say thanks to those on the board who helped me with the decision.

Now have a lovely supersix in the garage and now the sun is out looking forward to a ride out on Sunday.

It's looks lovely and so light. I've swapped the R510's over to the Secteur and put the Fulcrum 5 on the Supersix.

White bar tape is a pain to keep clean but ho hum, the balck and white just looks awsome!

Pics to follow.

Apex or 105?

I have an Apex, I never saw the 105 before I bought mine, though they were identical. But no, the 105 is a shiny finish, and I couldn't see any grey on it. Looked very different. Prefer mine though!

Hello
please let me know your thoughts about the Super Six .
I am trying to decide between the Evo model or a Specialised SL4 S Works Roubaix .
Just cannot decide .
I do love the Cannondale .
Hope you enjoy yours .

I too am looking for advice on these beauties!

I realised that the geometry is significantly different to the Specialized Venge or Tarmac, having a much shorter headtube relative to top tube length. How would this effect riding style? Taking a guess, I'd say it'd be a lot more aggressive but more fun at the same time (depending on riding style).

Was on another bike forum read that a guy standing at 6'1 or thereabouts and had an inseam of 35 inches should be fitted to a 54cm frame! Was a little surprised by this, as I'm about the same height as this guy and have 34 inches of inseam but could never imagine myself on something that small. Am currently on a 58 Tarmac but I feel the headtube (being 20.5cm in length) is too long. I also find the top tube is slightly too long and am reluctant to purchase a smaller stem. I should most definitely be on a 56 tarmac, but unsure about the Cannondale.

There's a thread on SuperSix sizing here, which might help you.
