Been offered a 2011 Caad10 frameset for a very reasonable price (150 quid), great condition and just my size.
I plan to build up slowly with Chinese carbon wheels and second hand drivetrain off fleabay.
Any experiences of said frame? A good investment?
As long as its not damaged, that's one .f the best alu road frames going. In fact, one of the best road franrs regardless of material
It t is a very very good frame. That sounds a great deal. Its a fun ride with nice sharp handling.
I've got one. Loving it. Tons better than my Allez.
I've got one too, 2012 I think which I picked up 2nd hand at the end of last year.. Really like it.
Mega frame I've got one and it's one of/the stiffest fastest raciest feeling bike I've ridden, and I'm more of a road man than mtb.
So long as no obvious dents or big dings then yes, they're great.
Thanks for the responses, I bought the frame.
I'll post up build pics when it arrives, it's going to be a slow burner though, one major part per pay check.
Thought about single speeding it, but then thought why get a road bike and limit myself on flats/downhill. So Campag or Shimano?
SRAM Force if you're going for a lightweight build. Campag costs loads, Shimano weighs loads.
Lovely frame, was considering one before I was swayed by a carbon Cube, still think sometimes I made the wrong decision and should have brought the Caad 10
