Does anyone know if the C60 will have the fitting for a battery on the down tube close to the BB or are they going for the internal seat post battery only ?

Cannot see a battery on any of the pictures which have electric systems.

So...

Should it be possible to use a Cannondale hollogram sisl chainset with the C60?

Probably not, chainrings are offset and the axle length is all wrong, isn't it?

Nice looking bike and upgrades. Couldn't they have made the steel bb insert in TI at the price of that frame?

From what I have read (BikeRadar, Road.cc, etc.), I get the impression that the shell is manufactured to accept a BB386 bottom bracket which means that the Cannondale Hollowgram SiSL chainset will not work for the reasons already mentioned.

It's a BB86 hybrid shell, but all the reviews are claiming 386 compatibility which is dubious at this point.

Bicycling Magazine has a review.
Weight slightly lower, much stiffer ride and still compliant but no longer described as plush.

The review author also not lacking in self-adulation either...

I could get one, but as the owner of a C59 is it compelling enough? I'll have to let some of the seasoned reviewers chime in (the ones that are not retailers obviously).

Have you seen any examples yet, Ian?

And what colour did they order? Haven't even seen a picture of a traditional one yet, don't think I'd be brave enough to order one unseen like that.

Interesting elements in review linked above, if you can ignore the reviewer (especially the prattling on so called superbikes :roll: ). It shows the tool provided for the BB.
