ok finished up the machine for this year. probably 1 hour testing so far, and 20 hours changing out cables and housings due to idiotic cannondale proprietary design and routing..... BUT surprised and relieved it WORKS. I felt super accomplished.

added:
dengfu (adr, pdq, asia asia asia) base bars , lmao
flo90 front wheel
3t ski bend carbon extensions
ares saddle (trying this out)
Sram Red chain catcher haha
Vision DragON brake cables and housings (these are game changers for this spaceship specifically)

20lbs of SLEDDDDDDD

Here's my Dengfu/Avenger TM6 cheapo bike, wasn't too cheap in the end after adding in the Ultegra di2 and flo wheels. 10.2kg everything in.

It's a fouriers oversized cage, with the 11t pulley on top replaced with a 14t to make it 14t-15t.

To me the nose cone Shiv TT is the best looking TT bike ever made! Now you just need to strip that paint off and make it match your Venge

agreed in the looks department it's up there for sure.... and importantly FAST. can't say that about too many others that the UCI banned it for that cone!!

Yes, I love the look of the nosecone shiv. I'll never sell it, and I've been in negotiations with painters about a custom paint job I want to do on it.

can the nose cone be added to any new shiv too? or was it proprietary for that year?

Adding another Shiv to the thread. 7900 groupset, changed the Chain rings back to the aero sworks rings, and still playing round with saddle selection.

Nosecone Shiv only works for that generation, not the new Shiv TT. Since we are talking Shiv's, here my contributions....

This one deserves a repost, at least one!

This is almost correct. You can add the nosecone to the Shiv TT, but you have to also use the fork, and brake from the nosecone, and it won't be quite as aero, because the frame doesn't drop down behind the fork on the Shiv TT thanks to the UCI. I quoted the pic as it shows this well. You would also have to source the nosecone parts which would be incredibly hard since production has long since ceased.
