It has to be the green one, doesn't it?

The grey one for me

Awesome deals around on these, unfortunately just blown our savings on a new roof instead.

bendertherobot

Interesting......

my thinking is I'll need better wheels. And tyres. And that the green one has better (not great) wheels and better (not great) tyres. Enough for winter anyway. And a carbon seatpost. And a better chainset.

And it's green.

It's a no brainer seemingly. Keep looking at Scotts, Lapierres, etc. But keep coming back to Dale.

Cracking deals. The Green on is nice and it has the Cannondale chainset as well as Ultegra. 52x36 while the Evans bike is 50x36 (ugly chainset too).

I would go for the Ultegra in green personally. Great paint job and amazing price. I got the hi mod a couple of years ago from Paul's and the only thing I was a bit gutted about was that its in the black with a few green flashes; would have loved those colours on it.

boblo

Yep, green Ultegra one. And I wish you'd bloody stop it! I've talked myself out of one of those 3 or 4 times already. Repeat after me; 'I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike, I do not need another road bike' etc... :-)

bendertherobot

I just need a road bike. Having convinced myself many times I could make do with 3 CX. That was silly in retrospect and apparently I'm doing the Marmotte in 2017 so.....

boblo

You must crack on then and get the green one before they're all sold.

bendertherobot

It'll be end of week.....

Half tempted to see if Evans in store will price match, Pauls not on the list, but worth a shout.

keef66

Definitely the green one.

Do it now!

It looks like you have made your mind up, however, this is a possible alternative:

Green one, end of!

I am actually tempted as well!

It certainly was. But all sold out.

boblo

A blue Cannondale? Are you mad? It's like a blue Kawasaki or a green Suzuki. Thank goodness it's out of stock. Has the OP ordered the right bike yet?

bendertherobot

I'm on it mun. Bike sale Friday so as soon as paid in will order

Blue was the colour of Cannondale's factory team bikes on the mtb side for years and before that they were red. As were the Saeco Cannondales in the Cippolini era... Green is a relatively new thing for Cannondale and so your comparison with the traditional motorbike colours is unfounded.

Don't buy a Cannondale anyway. Its BB will creak because they all do and you will wish you bought something else. Good mate of mine recently returned his supersix for a full refund after a year of creaky bb issues which Cannondale couldn't solve. Nice looking bikes, but flawed.

boblo

I've a CAADX that creaked but it's easily fixed. You just need to get on with it rather than moaning and throwing a consumer strop

Green is the only allowable colour for a new Cannondale (as opposed to an historic relic). Don't listen to him

Then what happened? A few miles later it creaked again? Everyone knows bb30 is sh!te, especially for some unknown reason when that bb30 is at the bottom of a 'dale. Not so much a consumer strop as Cannondale admitting that particular frame was outside of manufacturing tolerances and thus unfixable.

Cannondale green isn't even a very nice shade of green, and I like green....

bendertherobot

It's lush

boblo

The is laaaverly. Ignore that other fella, he's not being at all helpful. If it starts creaking, stick a Wheels Manufacturing thingumybob in it and that'll silence it. You shouldn't have to but that's the price of being a connoisseur

bendertherobot

My knees are more likely to produce more creaking noises.

daniel_b

Definitely the Green with Ultegra - get it ordered pronto before they sell out!

I really like that!

As for BB30, its quite possibly the worst invention ever, I had nothing but problems with the one on my System Six. So before this one starts to creak (and it will) I would sell the Chain-set, but a Praxis Works BB30 adaptor and chuck an Ultegra 6800 Chain-set on it - no more creaking!

That really is a nice looking bike!

bendertherobot

It's staggering, given the prices on the net, which are easy to find, to see how much people want for their used ones on ebay.

Agreed, some people are delusional when it comes to the value of their bikes and seem to think that the value is related to what they paid rather than current market value.
I paid £1250 for this (although I added the RS81s and the saddle) when it retailed at £2300 but I wouldn't expect £1700 for it, not that I'd sell it.
Turned down the green 'un for this as well as I prefer Sram and I got an integrated rear brake on my frame (yeah bit like a cup holder but hey ho)

Flâneur

get a respray for best of both worlds?

Nice looking bikes though. And you are right about ebay buyers and sellers

homers_double

Some of them...

I just sold a ford transit roof rack for 99p :roll:

They guy who is collecting said it's far too cheap and will give me some cash when he picks it up, not all people are crooks.

nicklong

I keep on coming back to these, even just for the frame and keep the bits back as spares. Natural upgrade from my CAAD10.

If anyone comes across a 52 or 54cm 2014 Red Racing frame in blue, let me know!
