Sorry, my mistake.

hmm, enve-parts are imho not really light, right? especially considering the price!

looking forward to the finished build, very promising choice of parts!

Agreed. At the same time, they're one of the lightest and have recorded some of the highest stiffness-to-weight ratios amongst the more common "off the shelf" brands (Fairwheel Stem Review and Handlebar Review). Much of the lighter brands weren't an option anyways as they don't have 25.4mm seatposts nor 130mm-sized stems.

But i would have to wait for the frameset, to be sold separately. I will build it up the same enve components, zipp 404 and etap.

The silver's sparkle really pops in the sun! You can't go wrong with an updated version of what many called, "the best bike ever." I also wanted to go with eTap, but read that it isn't available until spring next year. Hopefully they aren't delayed.

Got a complete pic of the final build? Did the new BB30A bottom bracket pose any issues?

Not yet. Stripped the bike down and still waiting on the BB and housing/cables to arrive. I don't see how the BB30A will pose issues with my Rotor 3D+ crank. They provided me with 6.5mm of spacers instead of the 11.5 cone for the NDS.

I have been trying to get hold of one of the lightweight expander plugs for my Supersix since I bought it and can't get one anywhere!!
I'm following this closely as this is by far my favourite frameset available right now!!

Bicycle Buys and others have them. Just search "Cannondale Expander Top Cap" and you're bound to find. Pretty cheap considering the astronomical weight loss it provides.

I have found a few in the States but the cost of shipping rules them out completely. Need to locate one in the UK, everywhere is out of stock and can never seem to give me a date for getting them back in stock

I use the carbon-ti expander bung (awful company name, great products) and its fantastic.

Superb looking Cdale! Would be very tempted by one of these...

Done! Sort of. Tires came in, just waiting for the wheels now. I put my race wheels (Zipp 202 Tubulars) on in the meantime. Here's a quick camera phone pic. I'll have proper photos taken once the wheels are in.
