It's 6.8kg with record, Fulcrum Racing 0, carbon bars, Selle seat, speedplay pedals and blackburn bottle cages.. It's a large frame, so I'm pretty happy with that. It's a revelation to ride after the Defy.

I've always liked scott frames... and with the correct groupset too. Nice

That's cool

Must say that is TUFF

New here, just picked up a CAAD10 Black Inc. from my LBS

Some quality bikes in this thread. I got a tad bored the other night so I went down the road to get some tail lights wizzing past my bike. Only problem was that unknown to me there was a crash futher along the road which traffic wasn't able to access so it took what seemed like forever for a single car to come past.

Good buy, Ive been riding my CAAD10 Black Inc since just before Christmas and with 2900km's done on it, it is an awesome bike.

great setup Hanzao!

Finally got some new bottle cages and a garmin!

Forgive the crappy iPhone pic

All I did was strip everything from my old Reid Falco to this frame (DengFu FM098).
It runs a full Shimano 105 groupset.

Wow! Looks great! Always read of people suggesting to do this to bikes with great group sets that are sold with not so great frames. Did you do it all yourself? If so, congrats!

You should be a comedian! I am far from being able to do that, hehe

The picture quality is forgiven, everybody knows that as cameras, iphones make good paperweights.
The composition however...
Right side. Only and always.
Big ring, small sprocket. Rear cage vertical.
Right crank at 3 o'clock.
Sticker free wheels rotated to conceal the valve stems.
Oh yeah, Is that a cadence magnet I see hanging off the LH crankarm? Pretty sure most sensors are designed to run above the stay too.

Try again mate, your new scoot looks too hot to not be photographed to best advantage.

Sorry - I meant steerer tube. It's been a long day

I like the red cage, breaks up the blackness just enough. Maybe something a little sleeker like THESE?

The Rib Cage is a nice looking one. It does need to contrast but if its red it needs to key in with something else red.
Which reminds me I've never posted a pic of my new(ish) Specialized Roubaix which got me to the summit of Baw Baw last weekend

The white cages match teh white stripes running down the seat tube and on the inside of the forks and chainstays as you can see in this pic

Im probably goona get this today


Or this


On a side note, please critique my bike fit that i did myself.
