First post on here but been lurking for a while.
I am currently weighing up between the Cannondale CAAD8 5 105 and CAAD10 5 105, with a preference for the CAAD10 because the frame is pretty highly regarded (from what I have seen) although I can't get hold of a 2012 here in Perth in my size (6'5" - at least a 60cm frame). I have asked about the 2013 but it was a little more than I was willing to pay at around the $2k mark. Is this the correct MSRP for this bike or could I get it cheaper?
I'm only aware of a couple of places that stock Cannondales here also, one being cyclemania and a cycle hire shop in East Perth, is there anywhere else?

IMO CAAD10 for the win!
I just bought one myself and am a very happy chappy.
Make sure you get a proper bike fit.

Just placed an order for a 2013 CAAD10 Ultegra in BBQ white at cyclemania
Apparently there is currently no stock of the '13 CAAD10's in WA, set to arrive mid November.
Now comes the horrible horrible wait.

For Allez, keep an eye out on the net for the best price for your choice of the two then go back to your LBS and see how close they can get to the price.
About 7 months back i purchased the supersix 5 105 from my LBS and had to pay only a dollar more than the cheapest price on the net (worldwide) after crunching the numbers back and fourth with my LBS.
