Good day everyone

 

Considering buying one of these Spec very similar from what i can see Ultegra groupset . Cannondale running 105 Cassette Trek Ultegra.

 

Price similar.

 

Took the Madone for a weekend and it was amazing cant do the same with Cannondale.

 

Any opinions?

 

Thanks

From what I've read you can't beat treks frame for comfort. Plus I like how it looks.

 

I haven't ridden either, but I was hoping /thinking of buying this (or the SLR6) about a year ago

And if I'm picturing the correct cannondale when you turn there appears a gaping hole in the front end of the rather ungainly looking head tube.

i have the 2019 Trek SLR. its the most comfortable ride you will find.

only thing that might be better is a Parlee, but thats besides the point.

 

its a no brainer for me. 

i'd take the trek any time over the cannondale.

 

i also agree, go turn the steering on the cannondale and see the gaping hole that shows up - ugly.

Which is lighter and which one has the correct crankset. I know some of the top Treks came with a 50/34 crank which is a bit strange for a top end bike.

Which one makes you want to ride the most?

50/34 will be all you need.

LOL, I didn't specify but I was actually referring to the 50 big ring more than the 34 small. That will have you spinning like crazy downhill at 50km/h.
