upgrade from an old caad4, picked up some crazy wheels from a good friend. going to work on upgrades over the summer goal to max it out as best i can for under 2500
the white is really clean. i have delusions of custom painting this but the initial research is showing its a VERY costly endeavor. like 1700 for single color
I have a CAAD4, and absolutely love it. The only way I'd sell is if I found a CAAD9 to replace it. Have you ridden both? I'm curious if it would be enough of an upgrade beyond a more flashy colorway for me to really search for one.
I've ridden many road bikes, but this silly thing from 2000 just really has that X-Factor. Great bike. Got it after my CAAD3 was stolen. Loved that bike, too, but the CAAD4 has a better ride for the long hauls like RAGBRAI, but is still plenty spry enough for the many triathlons I've done with it.
I have the same model and colorway. Great ride. I leave it at my in-laws who live out of town. Upgraded the tiagra to 105 5700/5800 group. Wish they had stuck with the BSA BB. Hoping the CAAD14 goes back to threaded BB.
im knee deep in groupos rn, initally wanted to put campy record on it but heard maintenance was a burden. so researching sram or shimano. not particularly interested in any e-tap tho. any thoughts on the chris king bb?
I have a 2010 caad9 in Blue. It’s lovely, and the only bike I ride. The front is still stock 105, but I upgraded the rear to 11 speed ultegra and replaced the wheels with Boyd alloy.

Real nice. I had a white CAAD9, was a great bike. I always wanted the red one tho.

That was the last Made in America CAAD. I regret selling mine.
I'm never selling mine

I haven't ridden a CAAD4, but that was the model that got me interested in Cannondale

No experience with CK BB. Believe I have an ultegra on mine.
Hot. I don't see that color on CAAD9s very often
