This bike is the very top of the road cycling food chain. ($6500 new... and that was before inflation got crazy. This same level model is around $10,000 today.)
Light. Fast. Stiff. Comfortable. Sexy. It truly has no weaknesses on the road. This is the top-of-the-line, Tour de France-level racing machine that is used by pro racing teams.
Right out of the factory box these bikes weigh around 15 lbs--which is insanely light for a road bike. I've swapped a few bits and pieces out for fitting and comfort and practicality. (Let's face it... I'm no pro rider so a few extra ounces on the bike aren't going to affect my Strava times significantly.) But I've seen this exact bike tweaked down to 11 lbs... with pedals... for hill-climb events... which is mind blowing.
This bike flies on the flats of course... but where it really shines is in the mountains. Such a great climber... and handles descents and switchbacks like it's on rails. Cannondale has really mastered the science of using different sizes and thicknesses of carbon tubing to produce the perfect road frame. This is one of those rare bikes that you can feel every watt of power that you produce going directly into your speed.... which just makes you want to ride even harder.
The "Hi-Mod" version is Cannondale's top-of-the-line frameset for every carbon model they sell--road and mountain. There's a Hi-Mod SuperSix, a Hi-Mod Synapse, a Hi-Mod Scalpel, a Hi-Mod Slice, a Hi-Mod Fs-i, a Hi-Mod SystemSix, etc... and they are the most expensive versions in the lineup--usually costing $2000 to $3000 more than the next highest version of the same bike--because they use the lightest, highest quality carbon fiber available--and the lightest, highest quality components. So, of course, used non-Hi-Mod SuperSixes are going to sell for less than the Hi-Mod versions. (And if it doesn't have the Hi-Mod logo and or the words Hi-Mod on the FRAME (not just the fork)... it is not a Hi-Mod version.)
This bike is mechanically and aesthetically flawless. Needs nothing. Recently tuned + new bar tape installed. New saddle. Newer tubes and tires. Barely a rock chip or scratch anywhere on the frame. Never been crashed. Always babied and stored indoors and tuned regularly. (I also just had the Mavic Ksyrium SL rear hub / freehub serviced at Contender Bikes.)
Sizing is a little tricky on these so let me explain: This bike MEASURES as a 53 cm frame (both seat tube and effective top tube); but for some strange reason, Cannondale calls that a 50 cm in their sizing / geometry chart. (In the past, brands used these two measurements to size their frames and there was fairly consistent sizing throughout the industry--but not so much anymore--as a lot of brands have gone to XS S M L XL XXL sizing--to make buying "easier" for riders (and store clerks) that don't have much knowledge on bike sizing--and to save money (by having to build fewer frame sizes). (They also usually put a frame sticker on most new bikes now with the size on it for this same reason.)
So... what size IS IT? a 50 or a 53? And I guess the answer is both. But to me, it's a 53cm... because I'm old school like that... and I think actual size matters... not "virtual" size. But in terms of how it feels... I'd say it feels more like a 51 or 52cm--which are fairly rare... because they're a bit smaller than the average male rider and a bit larger than the average female rider... so there just aren't a lof of them out there in circulation. *** Per Cannondale, the ideal rider height for a 51-53ish cm SuperSix is between 5'-5" and 5'-8" (163–170 cm)... but I'm 5'-9" and I am completely comfortable on this bike (as I have it set up)... with a fairly long stem and a setback seatpost. For riders on the shorter end of this range, you'll likely need to swap out the stem and possibly the seatpost... which is no big deal. (I even have a few extra stems in various sizes that might work.) But bits and pieces like stems and seatposts are easily found affordably on KSL, FB, and eBay--and bikes shops of course.
Bike will come as pictured... with (2) carbon water bottle cages and pedals of your choice (from what I have in the garage)... which could be SpeedPlay Zero's, LOOK Keo's, Shimano SPD-SL's or SPD's... TIME Xpresso's... or just some flat / platform pedals. (FYI - I was running these wheels tubeless for a while... so it IS possible... but they aren't strictly "tubeless" wheels... and currently have tubes in them.)
The saddle on the bike is now black... not red... I swapped out my older, red Selle Flite Team to a new Trek / Bontrager Aeolus Comp recently
The bike also has a factory-installed SRM power meter... but I never used it so I can't guarantee that it still works.
Repy with any questions or to schedule a test ride. I'm in the 9tha and 9th area of SLC.
