Looking to buy my first road bike. Going to be doing a longer race in November with my cousin. Iโm new but looking to learn! ๐
Anyways, Iโm in SoCal and it seems like things might be a little overpriced where Iโm at? What would you guys offer for this?

I forgot to mention heโs asking $1200โฆ
I would do 700 at most.
I actually got an old Supersix evo as a project bike. They ride fine but they need lots of work.
The drive train is an old race drive train, the slowest speed is still very fast. Upgrade path is not trivial nor cheap, especially if you want smaller cogs in front, due to BB30.
“Ceramic press fit bb30” – not something to brag about. Cannondales of this era have issues with the bottom bracket not being in spec, they chew bearings. They chew high performance ceramic bearings even faster.
You also can’t put tires wider than a 25 on this.
