Just saw new CAAD12 in red color posted on CAAD10 facebook page. Now, I must take my words about dull paintjobs back, because this is the color I would take.

I notice on the cannondale site the evo team is listed as coming with a 52/36 spider ring, I'm right in thinking this isn't available anywhere else yet?

Very nice bike seanblurr !

I received my EVO HM (ultegra model) last week. It's an impressive machine to ride. Previous bike was a 2015 Ridley Helium (and 2012 Helium). It's impressive the combination of stiffness, lightweight and comfort. I'll try to ride it as much as possible, it's borderline winter/snow here. My teammate had a Emonda SL and EVO 2013 and he's been raving about his 2016 EVO HM.

Does anyone know if the Stack/Reach numbers on Cannondale models includes their default 'headset cone', or is it strictly the frame itself, no headset cone?

Frame itself. Also Evos usually have another ~5mm stack headset cap under the cone spacer so you don't have to source one after you throw the cone away.

Yes my EVO had the big cone with the small one under it.

I'll try to get some better ones, but this is the one I have right now.

I asked this in another thread but may get an answer here since it is not disc-frame specific:

Does the internal routing on the CAAD12 intend for housing to be continuous throughout, or are there stops built in so the housing can remain external allowing for only the cable (w/ or w/o liner) to continue internally?

There are reducer-type cable stops inset in the frame ports. They are removable and replaceable with plugs or with Di2-compatible grommets.

Can anyone tell me what tire clearance is like on the 2015 model supersix high mod? Could it reliably accommodate 25mm tires with wider rims? I went into a shop yesterday to get a look at the 2016 model and ended up test riding a 2015 that's on sale. I've read mixed reports about tire clearance on the 2015 model. Thanks!
