New Project - CAAD9 Racer - 6.8Kg Barrier Smashed
Moderators: MrCurrieinahurry, maxim809, Moderator Team
Hi,
if I were you, I would build cheaper, which does not mean heavier wheels on a lightweight hubs and KinLin or Ambrosio tubular rims - Crono f20 or Nemisis, which are a little heavier. Perfect for crit.
I like the blue color, it will be a very nice dale.

Swapped the carbon spacers from stock to BBB UltraSpace and saved a whopping 4g
Finally the build begins....... and quickly comes to a halt.......

Nice high head tube on this bike so I suspect the stack height will end up being quite low when I have been in for a set up.
Now blue or black skewers? I'm leaning towards the blue......

Sheesh talk about peer group pressure
Seatpost is here - woohoo!
Claimed weight 163g - actual 166g
Groupset arrived
BB = 68g
FD = 89g
RD = 173g
Cassette = 225g
Cables & Cable housing = 214g (Pre cut)
Shifters including cable = 348g (Pre cut)
Brakes = 287g
FD Clamp = 26g
Crankset = 620g
Chain = 268g
Force Groupset w/cables (Pre cut) = 2318g
I'll use a Red cassette @ 163g and keep the Force as a spare.

Frame = 1975g (Size 58 Uncut steerer)
Saddle = 134g
Bars = 185g
Stem = 124g
Seatpost = 166g
Skewers = 43g
Groupset = 2318g
Bartape = 50g
Elite Bottle Cage = 40g
Pedals = 250g
w/ Easton Wheelset & Conti Tubs = 1732g
Total = 7017g
- BB30 Bearings weight unknown 50g?
- 62g for Cassette
Total should be 6905g - TBC
Building to begin tomorrow........ Watch this space

Reminds me of the Maritime Blue on Porsches.
I vote black too.
Nice car collection - that blue does look similar..... Maybe I'll change the Cannondale stickers to Porshe

All done!
Total weight with pedals and bottle cages........ Drum roll............
6.81Kg I was stunned. I was expecting closer to 7Kg so I am really really happy.
These pics are before setup so final weight may still change depending on whether I cut the steerer or not.

You may need to check your bottle cages. They are mounted upside down.
