    Some discussion about favorite CAAD road frames from another forum

    no doubt, if you read the thread at the other forum :) but i don't feel that for the CAAD-series... after CAAD9 it's getting more and more kinda ?awkward? with the aluminum frames. and it's sad that they don't continued these nice weldings, which – also beside some other factors – made the...

    super nice color combination! had a caad3 r400 too, but with white decals and midnightblue coating. nice model! unfortunately it was one or two sizes too large for me. i'm still looking for a caad3 too :) but waiting for the 'right' offer in decent condition and fitting size.

    Where did you ride your Cannondale today?

    yes it's a nice area to 'collect kilometers'. on hot summer days you've extra shadow from the trees there, what makes it felt a couple of degrees cooler. and you can jump into one of the lakes shortly, if it's too hot... xD but have to ride also 2 hours with the bike before i got there from...
