It's a stock CAAD alloy frame.... 12lb is pretty good for a Cannondale alloy frame.
I'm pretty sure the frame is above 1100g or so. I've seen smaller sized CAAD frames weigh around 1130-1150g, not including the fork

Ive checked my frame's weight before built. My frame size is 54 with 1170g not included fork.

Exactly! So building a 12lb CAAD 12 is pretty impressive, considering the frame weight.

Unfortunately mcfk say you can't cut the new posts but if it's still in the correct clamping area it should be fine. I have the same length and it weighs 138g so can't complain.

Very sharp looking bike, I love the white detailing on the forks and seat stays.

Very very nice! What are you using to plug the cable holes in the frame?
