Beautiful bike! That model is one of the bucket list ones I want to build! I like his practical approach to the build spec👌 Watching footage of him at the end, shows just how strong of a rider he is, a machine!!!! Regarding tyre clearance, my 2011 Argon 18 is the same, 25mm max, even then, a ‘tall’ tyre like a GP4000s rubs, where as Vittoria Corsa’s just fit.
@Aaron Loke I agree, he is an absolute beast!! I've seen him around BU Hulu Langat before, the way he sprints, I believe he is hitting peak of 1600-1700 watts
I also have an old frame and was also having some clearance issue with 25mm tires. However, if you go with those newer and wider Wheelsets ( like 26mm external width ), then when you install the 25mm tires, the maximum protrusion is not that much. I managed to use 25mm tires with my older bike frame now.
@@zulhelmihei5864 The crossed spoke lacing doesn't touch with the newer wheels (My wheels about a month old). Previously, there were feedback where some of the older wheels had noise due to spoke rubbing.
The older ones are nice, though I can't say the same about the new ones, especially the SuperSix EVO. If I'm forced to take a new-era Cannondale, it's the CAAD13 for me.
I'm a big fan of disc brakes but disc brakes most definitely require significantly more effort in keeping them in excellent working condition. I don't think Ineos switched their Pinarellos from rim to disc brakes because of neutral support as most of the peloton are on disc. It is almost impossible to put on another disc wheel that has never been adjusted on the same bike without suffering from disc rotor rub. I think switching from rim to disc actually made the job of neutral support more challenging as they now have to carry wheels with multiple rotor sizes.
@@sbsb4995 I don’t think disc brakes on road bikes is a marketing gimmick. Disc brakes have much better all-weather performance that does not depend on the trueness of the wheel. On long descent, you also won’t have to worry about excessive heat destroying your carbon rims or causing the beads of the tires to come loose. And this is becoming more important, that you can use tires as wide as your bike frame allows as most rim brakes do not take tires wider than 28 mm. All of these advantages do come with extra maintenance to keep it from squealing and to prevent disc rotor rub. The latter is what bothers me the most. No matter what I do, the front disc rotor on my Venge Pro (with Shimano Ultegra Di2 groupset) will briefly rub against one of the brake pads after use. I hope this disc rub will be a thing of the past after I have upgraded to the new 12-speed Shimano groupset with more pad clearance.
Hey man, the riding scenes right at the end of the video is a damn nice shot, it would be good to put it in your intro since it captures and retain viewing attention!
difference between bb30 vs pf30 is mainly the absence of plastic shell holding the bb bearing in pf30. The bb30 normally has direct bearing mount. As far as memory serves me right lah, correct me if I'm wrong. Cheers.
It is true that the tan walled tires are actually lighter. Francis Cade had a video on it. They weighed all black tires against the tan walled ones and the tanned walled ones are lighter. A lot of commenters say it is the reduced use of carbon black on the tan wall tires. That means the tan walls are actually sections of rubber that do not have carbon black. So if it is painted tan walls, the weight will higher or the same as an all black tire. So buyer beware. Not all tan wall tires are true tan wall tires.
Classic bike from cannondale. Easier to DIY as everything is external. Owner is practical and down to earth. Nice choice for him if he chooses the colnago c64 for his dream bike. Ride quality of that bike is another level. Oompa or anyone, are ceramic bearings really worth it ?
When I bought my CK hubs I wasted my money on the ceramic bearings. I don’t feel a difference in performance. I still get dropped every damn ride. After that, when I bought my BBInfinite BB I opted for steel bearings and is still as smooth. I think most people (or at least me) have the misconception that ceramic bearings are smoother and will make you faster. Having said that, I believe there’s some science behind ceramic bearings… For an average joe like me I would never get ceramic bearings because of the marked up price.
that's a nice bike. wider tire clearances are one of the best changes to road bikes imo
cannondale always nice!
I own (still do) 2011 model of Supersix.. awesome bike
Good call on the Colnagos. The C-series non-sloping top tube ones share the same geometry as this Cannondale.
C64 is my forever bike. REAL Italian built bike!

Yeah 25’s were new and on the wider end for tires back then
The guy is a beast.. looking at the way he is riding on some small housing roads at the end

I heard he put down power once and broke a crank!😱
If you are setting up a climbing bike, a rim brake shallow alloy wheels will be ideal...
Absolutely. Disc brakes ruin the weight and the aerodynamic of the bicycles.
@@sbsb4995 Aerodynamics? Nah....as marginal as the aerodynamics of AB OSPW 🤣

The newer winspace hubs space the carbon spokes such that they don't touch. Got one recently.
what do u mean with that new technology?

Heard so much good reviews about Cannondale bikes nowadays 👍

Disc brakes system is a marketing gimmick.

In their default setups, yes, you got that right. The dimensional difference is in the shell diameter: 42 v.s 46 mm.
definitely got a bike from the peak of cycling era
love the Oni mask

The video Francis' mechanic reveals after weighing many tan wall tires to come to this conclusion. th-cam.com/video/laF_cpeEwtU/w-d-xo.html

No. Listen to Hambini.

Beautiful bike!!!!
safe trip bk to SG!
Hardness is not a function of friction force.
Beautiful. Rim brakes is the way to go. Disc brakes ruined the look of the bicycles.
Whether disc brakes ruin the look of bikes is subjective but there is no doubt rim brakes actually ruin the wheels the longer you use them.
Rim rocks!
@@aaronloke9962 Hey, whatever floats your boat.
how old is this guy? he looks damn fit
My non hi-mod frame got more EVO decals all over it. I think is 5 watts faster.
not as big as TREK

Oompa have u tried hulu langat before?

really nice bike,but suprising thought will be 7.1kg full weight
