Cannondale SuperSix Evo 5 2014

[indigorallye]

I'm trying to find a retailer with the Cannondale SuperSix Evo 5 (2014) but no one seems to have them listed. They have other 2014 'Dales, including the Evo 6.
Is this bike not coming to the UK?

Thanks.

/gbr in the url suggests that is the uk catalogue...

[indigorallye]

It is, but there is no price listed on the link yet there are prices for the other bikes.
Thanks.

Probably just an omission of the price on the website, expect it to be priced around £1799 - £1899 it looks like you get slightly better wheels and less Tiagra bits than the £1699 version. Also the marketing blurb is misleading you into thinking it's a sub 700g frame when in reality it's the not the Nano or Hi-Mod versions and is ~1150g with paint which is actually the same weight as the CAAD10

Still a nice frame though!

My LBS have just told me it's not coming to the UK.
So, I'm looking for a 2013 bike now.

hi bud,
not sure if you would be interested but I have a cannondale six13 which has been in dry storage under my stairs for many years I bought her new but have only ridden her for about 2 hundred miles she has never seen a wet road and is mint. Size is 56 its the top model from I think it was 2006/2007.I have a few road bikes and am looking at a new road bike so some have to go or the wife will shoot me. give me a shout if you fancy it no worries if not ,and good luck with the hunt
Cheers toni

Thanks for the offer Toni, but you're a bit far away and I was looking for something newer.
Thanks a lot.

No problem bud......the new model is a nice bit of kit. I would try and get this years model at a cheaper price...you can get some good deals at the mo.

What size are you? 2012 version discounted here but only in 58 or 60.

[indigorallye]

Thanks guys.
I'm a 56- I think, but certainly no more.
I'm not keen on importing one from Germany. I've emailed Cannondale UK and am awaiting a response to confirm whether or not they are coming to the UK.
If I can't get one I need to decide between the 2013 in team colours, or the 2014 in BBQ.

Thanks again.

There's a black one with a new frame for sale on the bikeradar forums at the moment.

I'd love that if it were a 54!

[indigorallye]

Thanks for all your replies. I've decided to go for the Evo 6.

[indigorallye]

And now to contradict the above post!!
I've been in to the LBS this afternoon. Spent quite a while chewing the fat (as you do). I tried a Willier Iozard XP on the turbo and it felt a bit 'racey'. I was advised that the SuperSix would be similar, maybe a little worse.
Upshot being that the Synapse is now looking favourite.
I'm just waiting for the 2014 bike to arrive (this week).
Thanks again.

Bud, its a real thing of beauty......that is why I don't ride it,shame its to big for you because someone will get a real nice machine.

I tested a SuperSix & Synapse back to back. Bought the 105 SuperSix in Black/White and love it. Then had a bike fit, changed the saddle & now love it !



Ventoux, French Alps, Spanish Mountains, it take me everywhere in style !

I eventually bought myself a "new" bike a month ago, in the same colour + spec as above. Having ridden an Allez for the last 18 months, it was a nice step up! As vreat and faultless as the Allez has been(my new winter bike), the Supersix is a revelation!

I didn't realise how much faster it would be! Still on my things to do, is to get a bike fitting so that I can get a few long rides in before the onset of winter without a few aches and pains.

I highly recommend a Supersix!
