Originally a commuter bike, I switched places with my Cross-Check and made this a dedicated single-speed racing bike. The frame is from the Rob Roy group buy, which is why the color isn't very common. This is definitely not the fastest and most aggressive race bike in the world, in fact I'd say it's possible more suited to commuting/touring, but I've loved racing it none-the-less and I'd never blame my poor performance on the bike.
Sold this bike after a lackluster singlespeed season. A new Cannondale CAAD9 CX is on the way.
