Isn't the mount angled to counteract the seat post angle? Might need turning round.

Yes. Thats how I have mine mounted. Flip it 180 and that would most likely point straight backwards.

Correct, realised it a while ago and now have it pointing at the right angle. The mount still worries me, as it's only held on by the rubber band, i wish there was a way to get a go pro style mount on there, but Basso in their infinite wisdom decided to use a customer shaped seat post.

Aye, 7000, it’s nice in real life with a bit of sun on it.
Specs hard to beat for the price as well, especially on cycle to work

Never put the drive side facing the ground, you can damage the deraileur, get crap all over the chain etc.
also if your going to fall then fall towards the non drive train side

Brakes are for the old and feeble. Real men don't concern themselves with slowing down.

Thankfully I'm both old and feeble so they're incoming

Put new wheels and handlebars on my Systemsix.

 

[Jonny ///M]

That's nice, more elegant looking than the bar/stem setup that it came with and much lighter!

big frame that...

but maybe could use bigger ? - looking by spacers

 

[Nutty_Death]

I'm 6 foot 3, it's a 58 frame, which Cannondale call XL.
My current winter bike is a 60 frame.

I don't understand the obsession with slamming tbh, the bike is setup based on a bike fit, if I was to remove the spacers it would be uncomfortable and a larger frame obviously comes with weight sacrifice.

Rebuilt the Endurance SL Disc from scratch, having moved all the parts to the SystemSix

It has:

• Shimano 105 di2
• Zipp 303 Firecrest with GP5000 S TR
• Level 5 integrated bars

I originally intended on selling the frame but no one was interested, so i'm now debating whether to try and sell rebuilt or make it my completely ridiculous and over the top winter bike... tempting.

What do people think this bike could go for second hand? Groupset and handlebars are new. Wheels, tyres and frame have done around 500km
