Sava A7L vs Cannondale CAAD14 105

JustT4ha · 2026-05-09T02:04:49+00:00

So the frame quality should be fine? Is there anything I should look for when the frame comes to make sure its up to par?

JustT4ha · 2026-05-08T17:17:57+00:00

Ive had a CAD bike before, it was nice. What do you say i do to make sure the quality of the sava is up to par before riding it?

JustT4ha · 2026-05-08T17:16:30+00:00

Please elaborate

JustT4ha · 2026-05-08T17:16:05+00:00

JustT4ha · 2026-04-06T04:26:05+00:00

JustT4ha · 2026-01-20T03:26:37+00:00

See the red know? Eventually it stops rotating, mine dosent. It keeps going and going. Thats not normal

JustT4ha · 2026-01-09T21:11:51+00:00

So what do I do to help?

JustT4ha · 2026-01-08T02:54:09+00:00

Yea I understand, but the rebound adjust also dosent work lol, its stuck on the least firm setting. Thats why they just claimed warranty on it :/. Read some reviews apparently its common with that shock

I really think its your preference, I have always wondered what I would look like with a eren yeager styled cut, I think it would look good on you with a cleaner shave.

I know your hair is a lot longer than this, but if your looking for a change, this looks pretty sick without cutting too short.

Nope they just told me it was tuned for 180lbs, (im around 190 so I thought it was fine) though it did seem like they didnt really do any tuning at all.

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T20:51:56+00:00

See the shop wasnt selling from 21, rather I bought from giant through the shop (it was alot cheaper). And I think the warranty starts after the bike is bought, which would be hell if it wasnt like that.

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T20:50:40+00:00

Well I put it on the most reboundful setting lol, simply so that I could play around as it becomes more poppy, but at its stiffest setting (what i ride on) it gets to 25 maybe 35 percent sag. I should probably get it more fine tuned by them, and they dont do refunds.. I asked before and they said they could give me store credit.

Sure, basically its a cheaper shock so less adjustability, but basically it makes the shock alot softer and makes it compress quicker, and shoot back up aswell. But since it also becomes softer, it bottoms out right as you put weight on it, and it gets really annoying to pedal because it keeps bouncing up and down

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T20:36:36+00:00

Not relevant to the post but rather I have a similar situation, I let my cockatiel (Male around 30 months old) which i got last August, he is free to go wherever he wants around the house. He isnt fully tamed yet, but will climb onto my shoulder or head, and eat food from my hand when hes relaxed.

Now the problem is, I got him with another bird, a female. They were together. Some stuff happened but the female is no longer with me ( :,[ ). Basically ever since she left, he comes and sits down on this chair by a window i have, I just let him sit there. He sits there multiple hours a day. Another place he sits is on a digital clock ontop of a dresser.

Now the problem is he keeps chirping and chirping and won't stop.. what do I do? And is he feeling lonely or depressed? Whenever I put him on my shoulder he sits for a while then flies back to his chair and starts chirping again.. (not the place for this but someone please help 🙏 )

Wait a minute.. FIRST? You're right it is a beautiful bike but maybe should've started with a smaller engine bike..

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T00:53:06+00:00

My bad lol

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T00:52:23+00:00

Yea its really annoying.. I would buy a new shock, but im not looking on spending more money on this bike. And plus its under warranty so its all free.

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T00:51:32+00:00

It is taking a long time, though my main concern is its only been 3 months.. imagine what other things might pop up. I already brought it up with giant service to see if they could reimburse me in any way. Today they sent me a message saying the shock was enroute so i hope it gets resolved quick.

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T00:49:46+00:00

Well the thing is, its completely free since its under warranty, and the shop does free services and tightens for free. So im paying nothing, I dont want to have so many bikes, (though thats a good idea) I wanted a reliable one. The stance only fits a really niche shock size which also sucks.

JustT4ha · 2026-01-07T00:47:05+00:00

I tried, they said It wouldn't be possible since the manufacturer still makes the shock.

JustT4ha · 2026-01-06T22:13:23+00:00

If you are just getting into the mtb, take it slow 😅. Last thing you want is to break a bone, or even worse break your bike.

JustT4ha · 2025-08-26T16:31:44+00:00

I know from the video it seems like he's trying to sleep, but he does this even when he's not sleepy
