If true, it sounds like you have yourself a bargain! The 2015 version with FSA cranks was about £1200 IIRC0

Sounds well dodgy to me, but hope it turns up.
Why could they not just sell it in the shop?
It's only just come out. Why order it in only to have the hassle of selling it at cost on eBay?
Why did no one pay more in the auction?
What size is it? How tall are you?0 -

He then emailed me the receipt, They told me they were moving along cannondale in order to bring in merida etc.
Auction was a mid day one with 20+ bids

RRP is £1500 so you got it less than half price!!! Even the 2015 models are not discounted that much, nice one!0

Hi UgoEpic deal
wanted to ask you a quick question you seem like a man in the know...
Can I use my campag shamals with a 11 speed cassette on a 11 speed 105 drivechain n groupset?
Is it as easy as wacking a 11 speed cassete or will their be accelerated wear/shifting issues.
(Shamals are currently on 10 speed)
Many thanks

11 speed cassettes are all interchangeable, so any campag cassette will play nicely with your 105 groupset.

Yes, you can.
In the long run it will probably turn out to be pricier than swapping the freehub for a Shimano one, if that's at all possible.
For some stupid reason Capagnolo doesn't market 11 speed Athena cassettes and the Chorus are horribly expensive, when compared to 105 or Ultegra 11.
Also, Shimano has friedlier sprocket combination up to 32 Tleft the forum March 20230 -
Utterly fantastic deal - well done that man - brilliant Chrimbles present.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Sounds spot on size wise then.
The way your luck is going they might accidently pack a Garmin 1000 in the box too :P0 -

I don't want to spoil an obvious bargain but the cannondale sizing chart suggests a 56cm for the range of 5'10 - 6ftGiant Propel Advanced Pro 20 -
Hi yes luckily I have tried the 54cm in other shops and it felt good, I also have a canyon that shares similar geometry I prefer smaller frames as I will turn it into a crit bike☺️

Nothing is spoilt, the sizing chart is just wrong

Bike chart suggestions are merely that....guides. Not rules set in stone. The cannondale chart would be wrong for me. I know this for a fact because ive owned 3 cannondales in 3 years in 3 different sizes (58,56,54cm ). I'm 5'11 and i would (do) ride a 52cm with a 120mm stem. Everybodys dimensions are different.
The cannondale chart also seems to give random differences between bike sizes. Varying from 1 inch to 4 inch. So how can it be so precise ? The answer is it cant be.0 -

I'm 5ft 9.5. 54 is spot on for me. There's no rule that being an inch taller automatically makes you swap sizes.My blog: http://www.roubaixcycling.cc (kit reviews and other musings)

I'm bang on 6ft and have 2 cannondales - both 56 and they're good for me.0

Good to know, the other half was looking at the 2015
Models Evans have at decent prices. They won't however get any in unless you lay out a deposit so we were trying to work out size is likely to fit.Giant Propel Advanced Pro 20
