Nice cyclist

the bike looks cool, the chain brings the extra bling to the setup.

im also new to cycling and i just bought a caad12 a month ago. im looking into mavic ksyrium or fulcrum racing zero. any thoughts?

After all this time using the wheel so far, do you have issues of discoloured rim surface? Thanks

I dunno man. 20 or so bikes later (lost count. I have an addiction) I'm on a CAAD12 myself. I've been riding 8 years. I think it suits everyone.

I got the same saddle and I’m loving it so far… my first test saddle

Long ride, lower your tyre pressure to a comfortable pressure

Your bike looks soo good!!! Please, What wheels are you using?

Great video and I'm subbed now

That head tube extender looked great.

do you have or had problems with bb30 ? what's your height and size of the bike, are you content with that ?

Great bike choice & review! Not only a bike for a beginner, just an excellent bike for all!

I’m a mavic fan they looks nice

damn, my caad12 is about 9.5kg. Apart from wheels where are the biggest weight saving gains made without breaking the bank? I did have a supersix which i crashed but instead of buying another one I just wanna weight save my caad12 and invest in a gravel bike.

The music ruined your video

great review on your cannondale upgrades. i have the caad 10 ultegra 2013 size 50 with upgraded mavic wheelset. i have a 95mm stem and was thinking of going shorter to maybe 80mm for more comfort. you went slightly longer although you have slightly smaller frame.

Excellent video thanks, I got opportunity to buy ksyrium pro alloy it doesn't have that name exalith but they look cool for £400. I think I'll go for them.cheers mate

Have you got any issues to it till now? Planning to buy the same ws as urs but in 2nd hand

I have similar blacked-out aluminum wheels. They are Campagnolo Shamal Mille. Love them!

Well done. What bike do you have. Guess what? I went on this route today for the 1st. It was on the to-do-list for 10 years! Ha ha ha

I'm about to buy my first road bike! My apartment is located right next to the cycling road. I'm wondering if it would be a good spot for a beginner rider? It looked relatively flat but I know it can get crowded and attracts lots of pedestrians.

I need a faster bike to race my German Shepard with!...LOL!

Is it carbon fibre?

Lynskey bikes are actually the original owners of the Litespeed brand. They afterwards sold their company and founded Lynskey which is the last name of the Litespeed founder David.

Are you having issues with the brakeline exalith?

Really like your bike, looks very stealth. I still ride a 2015 CAAD 10 105 11 spd and have never felt at any disadvantage on it. I actually rode a few super six's first but couldn't stop climbing back on the CAAD. Unless your a competitive racer or top level pro you will most definitely not be at any disadvantage with 105 or a CAAD, your fitness will stop you long before 105 will. For most the differences are negligible to the cost difference.

Your chain is on backwards.

Caad are great bikes. The only problem is they use bb30 which is a pain to maintenance if u r an average beginner cyclist. Upgrading the crank will also require a bb upgrade

Thank you for taking the time to review these Mavic wheels. I found it very interesting and informative. My next bike will be a new Litespeed T1SL. They offer four choices of wheel sets but I'm still interested in other options. Really appreciate the information! Cheers from McCarthy Aerospace Watches - Leeds Alabama USA !

Sir does it have a ceramic bearing?

Such smart wheels! I literally can’t find these to buy anywhere in the UK.

I agree with everything you said and I’ve had my 2016 Caad12 from new. The one thing that stops me recommending Cannondale to anyone is their totally useless bb30/a standard! Nothing good to say about it, and I’m currently in the process of changing mine to Shimano! Their tolerances are ridiculous and the whole design is flawed. However, the frame is amazing as is the Hologram crankset. Sorry, but I will never buy Cannondale again!

Has the noise on the brakes come down?

Did you ever get to finish building it?

I have them setup as tubeless, works like a charm. Both on the original tires Griplink/Powerlink and on Yksion Pro 2 UST, on which Im using now. I use Orange Seal as sealant.

Oh man, I'm going to buy a full build.

While I agree titanium bike is super durable, the cost of a used and equally durable and lightweight complete carbon endurance bicycle can be had for a little over $450 (That's how much I paid for a 2009 Specialized Roubaix 105 Compact) that absorbs bumps superbly and rides efficiently on the road. The frame is like new and as long as you don't crash it, it will probably last equally as long as the titanium for as long as one rides. While a Titanium bike build even with used frame and groupset components will easily go upwards of $2000. Someday when I have extra cash, I'll get a titanium frame...

Wow you re pretty good! Thanks so much!

Good taste

Mavic wheels are 2-4% heavier than they claimed on the web. But I like Mavic alloy wheels for training.

I've bought also a CAAD 12 and i am thinking to upgrade the wheelset. I got a offer for 400€ from a friend. New wheelset. But IT's the KSYRIUM pro disc. Worth it? If i spend 1k i would buy carbon wheelset. Did you also think about this option? Why did you still choose Aluminium over carbon at this price point.

The only upgrade you need is to do some yoga. Which is free. Getting more aero is gonna make you significantly faster. Components are really really marginal

The CAAD series are awesome frames...I too began with CAAD (10, 105). It is high performing, light, and responsive for the cost-effective price. A CAAD frame in any group set is a keeper. I still use the bike on occasions, but have since upgraded to a Litespeed Ultimate as my daily ride. Great channel BTW.

what do you think about the synapse? I'm hesitating between these two for a first road bike, just for fun rides, fitness, no races.

Do you know the weigh of this machine when you had 105 groupset?

I have viewed hundreds of review videos on all different bikes and this was the most comprehensive and honest review I have seen!!! You touch on all subjects that would matter most to your average cyclist. Thank You!!!🇺🇸

👏

I used to live near Yanokuchi station circa 2000 to 2004 which was right by Tama River. Unfortunately, moved after into the city so now my access to Tama River is about a 10 km ride on Kanpachi Dori which really sucks! I am planning to ride this weekend up the Tama River to Hamura Dam.

Damn - think you have already graduated from the beginner bike category! Impressive!!! Going to get my son to watch as he wants to get into cycling as well.

Excellent - I have been away from serious riding for a while and this is very helpful. I used to ride (circa 1994) a Team Miyata Cr-Mo frame with Campagnolo Nuovo Record (friction). In your videos - are you riding with cage or SPD pedals?
