You can find the older SiSL or the latest gen Si crank pretty easily. If it's a Cannondale, it pretty much needs to be running some version of the Hollowgram.

I'll have a Cannondale SI Crankset (as standard on the current CAAD12 available for sale soon, if anyone is interested.
172.5mm, 52/36t, 110BCD


Oh yeah, basically almost everything that comes standard on the CAAD12 105 will also be for sale, never used, 0.000000000000000000000000 miles. If anyone is interested in some parts before they go in the For Sale section, or eBay, please let me know. The only things that I am keeping, for now, are the fork/frame/seatpost/headset bearings. I'll sell the seatpost (25.4) after I have the positioning set.

Berk Integrated. :twisted:
Seatpost clamp by SMUD :twisted:

and lots, lots of other goodies.
So far, with predicted tuning of various components, I'm looking at 5.4kg.

As above, I'm looking for a crankset, how much would you be looking at for the SI crank? Thanks

So I have managed to get hold of the newly designed 2016 Cannondale SI crank (One seen at towards the bottom of this page http://www.bikeradar.com/road/news/arti ... ook-44620/) and I was fully set on pairing it up with a Force groupo for my CAAD10 build. However I've now also acquired a new Dura Ace 9000 chainset for a really good price, so I'm unsure whether to use that instead and go Ultegra with the DA crank (full DA outside my price range). Any advice?! Has anyone tried the new SI chainset?

Thanks

Use the SI crank with the BB30 bottom bracket vs DuraAce with bottom bracket adapters. Just my opinion.
