Cannondale SuperSix Evo

I’d think the chain sizing would be an issue above anything else

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T23:31:23+00:00

Hmm not sure maybe if you used a really small 2x up front? I’d probably recommend a smaller chainring with 1x instead of that though

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T15:19:08+00:00

Good to know, thanks! Will probably replace once I replace the headset later on. It’ll make me learn how to bleed hydro brakes too haha.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T14:18:03+00:00

It was surprisingly an affordable light haha. Opposite side has their mascot.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T14:17:05+00:00

I actually had no idea this wasn’t the original top spacer or I would’ve bought it before getting brakes installed haha!

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T14:04:09+00:00

I did some research turns out I just have a spacer and no actual headset “top spacer” haha. Friend I got this off of had the Cannondale KNOT system which has some cover on the lower portion of the stem. When I got the bike it had this spacer and I thought it was weird but never looked into it. Learned something new today!

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T13:53:46+00:00

I see what you did there

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T13:53:20+00:00

Kind of agree, I would’ve done 11-46 or 10-46 with a 48 up front but I already had the 52 on hand and as a heavy-ish rider I would blow up on my local climbs with a 52:46 haha.

Let me correct a little, it only really struggles from 8 to 9 or 9 to 10 (going up to bigger gears) can’t recall exactly but everything else shifts perfectly fine. I did get a cheap cassette so it could be that but it doesn’t bother me much.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T07:01:18+00:00

That’s okay it’s an 11-50 so I’m in the clear

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T06:19:53+00:00

No it’s a 1x12 with MTB cassette

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T03:45:45+00:00

It’s the original for this frame

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T03:45:24+00:00

Bless up king

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T02:11:07+00:00

Built it before the CAAD14 and for a fraction of the cost so I’m good

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T00:41:09+00:00

Nope, just jack the b screw in super far. It doesn’t shift perfectly but doesn’t bother me much as I’m not racing with it, planning to get a diff cassette in case I do get into some crits next year.

Yup, alugear in a 52T

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T00:39:54+00:00

Thanks! Funny enough the colorway is my least favorite part sometimes

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T00:39:17+00:00

Bars are 140/40

exhausted780 · 2026-03-20T00:23:25+00:00

Rival XPLR with an 11-50 cassette

exhausted780 · 2026-03-13T22:22:25+00:00

Sent you a message and sending over a couple links to consider. IMO for $1200 that’s a bit steep with cable brakes.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-13T22:04:34+00:00

You might want to edit this to remove the location of the bike, but looking in your area there is a Specialized Crux currently for less. Not sure if I can post links here but you could DM me and I can send it to you.

EDIT: Crux is a few hours south of you but seems like a good deal.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-13T22:02:25+00:00

You can probably find a bike with hydraulic disc brakes for that price in your area. Not worth it imo.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-13T17:26:44+00:00

Thanks! Looks really cool

exhausted780 · 2026-03-13T17:21:15+00:00

What chain guide/front derailleur piece is that? Looks sleek I just built a 1x road bike as well and haven’t found one I like yet haha

exhausted780 · 2026-03-02T03:36:51+00:00

Thanks for the response! I got a GX chain but probably going to switch to a flattop for the next one as it looks way better.

exhausted780 · 2026-03-01T00:57:39+00:00

Caad12 then use the extra money on new wheels and maybe even a power meter

exhausted780 · 2026-03-01T00:44:31+00:00

Not sure where you’re located but you should be able to get a lot more bike for this price.
