8.9 Enve Clinchers.
For a 50 miles around here you will gain about 100 feet of elevation, I live right next to the beach, so a lot of people around here have very deep wheels.

Budget race bike, but its turned into my favorite bike...

I've seen a couple paint stripped CAAD10s and thought they look badass and attempted to strip the paint myself on this 12, but I didn't realize how much work it would be. The majority of the paint is off, but the joints still have loads of paint and primer on them that you can't see from afar. After the season ends, I might get it painted so it looks like a normal bike, but I'm not sure what the plan is for that.

All in, I'm around $1300 and its a blast to ride. I have a R8000 RD I need to install, and I might play around with different stems, but I'm pretty much done component-wise. Fits 28mm Pirelli P-Zero tires that measure out to 32mm actual on the Course 30 wheels with room to spare.

After seeing a heap of Caad12 builds on here I couldnt't help myself and had to build one.

Very impressed with the way the bike rides overall.

This one is 6.745kgs in current trim (minus lights and garmin).

CAAD12 56cm, Boyd 44mm carbon clinchers and Save seatpost

the combo of the upgraded seatpost and carbon wheels smooth this thing out so well!

This thread kind of died but thought I would post a pic of my finished 2016 black inc Caad12. 60cm frame at 15.17 LBS with pedals, k-edge, sealant, 50mm wheels, and DA Di2. Very happy with the bike. Love it.

Thought i would share my Cannondale CAAD12 build because, quite frankly, I love it!!

Some great builds on this thread too!!

Currently weighing in at 7.6kg (thats all in with exception of garmin and bottles)

CAAD12 58cm frame
Campagnolo WTO 60
Vittoria Corsa 28mm tubeless
Campagnolo Record 12 groupset (172.5 crank; 52/36 up front; 11-32 cassette)
Deda super zero stem and bars
Favero Assioma Dua pedals
Cannondale save seatpost
Selle SMP full carbon Forma saddle
Lifeline carbon bottle cages

Interested to get peoples thoughts on cable routing. It looks awful up front and I wondered do you think its better to cross over the cables in the down tube to facilitate smoother routing up front. Also, do we know if Campagnolo will bring out Record EPS. Super Record is just way too much for me!

Thanks all
