Hi guys, I'm a long time lurker, first time poster and I thought that I would show you my new bike. I've got it through C2W as a replacement for my trusty Specialized Allez that was stolen earlier this year.
So this morning this arrived....DSCF0772.JPGI opened it and found this......DSCF0773.JPG

Sometime later I had this.... https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ux-A ... CF0774.JPG

Cannondale CAAD 8 2013
Shimano 105
FSA BB30 crankset
Tiagra 12-28 cassette
Maddux wheels

Had my first ride and I'm impressed with the bike, if not my lack of fitness. Setup needs some tweeking but that will come with time.
Cheers Paul

    Once you tweek the steering it may be more comfortable to ride , looks a bit out of alignment to me. :-D

    Great purchase. Hope you have many enjoyable miles riding her.

    Nice!

    I want one of these for my commuter and winter bike, but just can't stretch to the 105. Probably Sora for me. Cracking frame though and loving that stealth finish.

    Enjoy! :D

    Hopefully this picture works. I'm very pleased with the frame as I actually wanted a Synapse but they'd none left in a 54.I'm still tweaking it but it just gets better everytime I take it out.
