Bling Bike - System 6

[Zaskar]

Yay, finally finished building up my road bike to my ultimate spec. Its taken a while, but im really happy with it and i can honestly say it rides like a dream .  Check out https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=20621 for pics when i got her. She has lost a bit of weight since then, and is now just on the legal limit (incl pedals cages etc). Not bad for a big 58cm frame!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What you guys think? Anything else I could change?

 

(PS. thanks Crux for helping me out with getting some of the bits! )

Don't know enough to give any advice though.

 

Well done

Beautiful!

[Reg Lizard]

what did this "project" cost you? Must have been at least an arm and a leg!!!

[Spinnekop]

Awesome!!!!!

That there is now a CLASSIC!!  Cannondale have taken them off their production line for 2009.

Very nice. Like how the silver saddle fits in with the silver frame. Maybe ad some solver or red , for nice contrast and to match the red writing on the wheels and finishing kit, Nokon or Aligator cables. Red KCNC/Token pulley wheels and seatclamp will also look nice. Otherwise I would say she is perfect.

drool.....

 

no that is a sweet ride

Considering i bought the frame, brakes, saddle and wheels from hubbers, the only thing that i paid RRP for were the stem and bars. The groupset i got at good prices from friends, and the seatpost was imported from CRC. I worked it out lastnight, and it cost me 46% of the replacment value!

Congrats Zaskar!!!!!  Damn your Campy Record looks good! Droool.... I need, I want!

Not bad at all. The only thing I'd consider changing is the frame and fork Perhaps you can get a nice Scott one day

I think he does have one. It evens has a real groupset on.
