You deffo need some nice tyres on there, some 25mm Vittoria Corsas or something, will be night and day.

Should be out on it tomorrow if I slow down on the cider so will find out.
How are the Corsas? Most the lads at work are on GP4000's and I was going to put some of those on for summer. The only thing I really want to do now is change the wheels but I'm fussy on the way they look so everything's leading to Mavics with Exalith rims.

Mavic are shit. Avoid. Conti tires are fine, not very inspiring though. Get something more fun, Challenge, Vittoria etc.
BonerhasBent:
New Mavic wheels are pretty damn nice! They have new up to date widths and they look pretty proper!

FYI, Cannondale is quite adamant about setting up your spacer stack so that there are NO spacers on top of the stem. that is how the SI headsets were designed. I know it sounds counter-intuitive.

Roadie mode
My bars are at the wrong angle though, need to be tilted forward slightly and levers pulled up a bit

Think I'm going to put MTB cranks on it with 48/30 chainrings. Seeing as I'm running a 135mm hub surely I should also be running a 73mm BB?
