[#3832755]

I have managed to get a Cannondale RZ one twenty 120 on the cyclescheme!

I will upgrade the groupset as and when things brake and I am looking for a Lefty to replace the fork with.

Is there anything I could replace straight away that would make a big difference?

Cheers mate - looks good 😉

I am trying to work out if paying £600 extra for the 2 version and swapping the front fork is better value than getting the 3 version and slowly upgrading most of the bike?

And the 2 has Shimano where it counts

Remove yourself from the bike and give it to a skilled person to ride. The bike will now have much greater performance and it'll cost you nothing.

That's either a joke or you have seen me ride 🙂

Back to the point in hand - swapping the group set with the XT stuff on my hardtail seems to be the way to got.

Cheers,

Got one meself back in 2008. RS Revs and some decent wheels/tyres make a huge difference.

Still on the original X5/X9 groupset have not adjusted the shifters/mechs since the first week. Shift click shift click lurvely

I've got an 09 Rize 120 carbon (or part carbon) and with 140 Talas forks up front and a nice comfy Gobi saddle, and it's the smoothest ride imaginable - knife through butter through everything.

Superficial - I think you need to wind your neck in a little, accusing people of committing fraud on a public forum is way out of line. I Live in Somerset - my cycle to work is mostly off road - why should I buy a road bike?

Dekadanse - thanks for the advice
