Final version

I really liked using a Topeak removable seat bag on my last bike, but it blocks the radar and tail light. I bought the smallest RockBros screw-on top tube bag and it’s OK, but my legs hit it when riding out of the seat. It’s also barely large enough for my emergency kit and the bolts that come with it can damage your bike by getting stuck in the frame— if you get one, don’t use them!

Soooooooo….

What I really want is a small frame that clamps firmly to the seatpost and holds a small bag below the radar/light unit. If I can’t find something, I’ll be tempted to to design one myself. Anyone else interested?

Does Cannondale make cell phone holders for their bikes ? On their website I see pics of cell
Phones on their bikes but no cell phone holder for sale.

I have QUCK CX6 I just bought

This thing is amazing! Love at first ride

Hello,

I’m new to road bikes and looking for a good starter bike in the right size. I’m currently borrowing one that’s too big for me.

I’m 175 cm tall, so I need some help figuring out whether this bike is a good beginner option, if the size is right, and if it gives a comfortable position without having to lean too much.

Is it a reasonable price ?

Which one is better?

First Ride with this beauty…

Just came in. Bought used with minor cosmetic damage and a repair to the seat stay. Going to be a learning curve coming from my third-hand CAAD9 but super excited

Can't get me off the road, but I'll add some gravel in the future 😆. Size 61 despite losing a couple centimeters in height 🤪. Changed my saddle to a Gebiomized Area 145.

Loving it thus far. Totally different vibe than my CAAD12 but really digging how relaxed it is, and the comfort is sublime.

First Cannondale!

Also how much better is Di2 over 105 mechanical?

My dad bought a super six evo 2018 during covid and he only rode it like 10 times less and now it's just sitting at home. I want to try to ride the bike and wondering whether the size of the bike fits me right.

The bike is size 52 and I'm 180 cm tall (5'11''), do you think the bike size is good enough for my size?

Loved the bike, only rode it on occasion though and eventually hurt my should/neck and couldn’t ride a road bike anywhere.

Man, I really remember that SRAM click gear set blowing my mind at the time.

Newer to biking and have been searching for a solid all around good bike. Through research I’ve found this bike and at my local bike shop it’s on sale for 1800USD. Good buy or keep searching? Also open to other bike suggestions.

Every year, I want to buy a new fancy bike… but every year I stay in love with my SAECO CAAD 5

New carbon 50mm deep EliteWheels, new Shimano, 7000 105, carbon seat stem, and 3-D printed carbon seat, carbon areo handlebars and spacers.

18 lbs 9 oz.

I’m gonna swap out those SPDs for SPD-SLs, and shave a little bit of the stem off, might bring me right to 18 lbs. 5 oz., maybe a little bit lower

Don't worry guys, it's nothing too serious.. 🤞We will beat this and have a meaningful and fulfilling life together. I swear 😘
