RobertWhitehead Posted June 14, 2023 Share So here's my current dilemma I have some builds coming up and I am in two minds which one to go with first? This is not a case of either or, both will get built. Both frames are carbon, both are L and both are Kanon-donkie (Cannondale). One is a 2018 SI team edition (2nd link) and the other is a SI-6. I currently have all the parts to finish both but not both of them will have all of the bells and whistles, if I want to put bells and whistles on both then I will need some other parts 😃. My thinking is to make the team the bells and whistles bike and to put a standard fork and non-carbon wheels on the si-6 even though it is two years younger than the team.

Spinnekop Posted June 14, 2023 Share That team edition is a work of art! Build that with all the prettiness and then take the time on the SI6 RobertWhitehead 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
