Chopper Jr Posted August 7, 2013 Share I'm looking at upgrading my Tarmac SL3 S-Works for a Cannondale SuperSix Evo Black Inc Having read a few reviews, which all praise the Evo Black, a couple of the heavier riders have mentioned that the super light bike is a little scary on the descents. I'm 90kg... My question is will I break the frame and die a horrible death on a descent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZRider Posted August 7, 2013 Share Maybe but riding that EVO Black up the hill will be worth it!That frame has no rider limit I know of. I weigh 95 and I'd happily fly downhill on it. nickc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZRider Posted August 7, 2013 Share Check the wheels on the black inc., might be a weight limit there like on the new addict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Jr Posted August 8, 2013 Share The Black is spec'd with Enve tubbies which are ridiculously priced so not taking those... on Zipp 101s and Easton EC90SLs... so all good there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reg Lizard Posted August 8, 2013 Share No, don't down grade from the Spez to the Crackendale Bodhi, Li Mu Bai, KENDA and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZRider Posted August 8, 2013 Share Don't listen to them Spaz boys, on the EVO you'll be to far ahead to hear the whining!On the Zipps you'll be good even if you put on a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Li Mu Bai Posted August 8, 2013 Share The Spez SL3 was my upgrade from Canondale haha. Tarmac is a great bike, enjoyed the canondale too.Will you notice much difference?Not sure, geometries are quite different, My tarmac flies up hills, and with my 58 deep sections, downhill acceleration is amazing. Very happy at the mo, so I think you wont be upgrading, rather going sideways... Reg Lizard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
