The BMC, it’s ready to race. That Cannondale is a Fred machine, wouldn’t own a bike from someone who changed handlebar tape for “more grip”. MTB pedals and a comfort saddle. Horrible thing…
The BMC is a cooler frame. But has 6700 ultegra which is kind of meh.
The Cannondale is newer with R7000 105, which is really damn good.
I’d lean towards the Cannondale, with the BMC being more of a “project” bike where I’d rebuild it with period-correct SRAM or Campag.
Both good bikes, if I didn’t already have a BMC I’d say go caad12 legendary bikes in the aluminium frame game.
But really I think the caaad since it already fits 30mm which is gonna be comfortable. And if it’s better condition then no brainer.
100% Cannondale. Saddle and pedals can be switched, CAAD12s are legendary for how good their frames are and how light they are. You won’t regret it.
Of course if it was a newer carbon roadie, then I’d consider it but the Cannondale is clearly newer.
The Caad12. Legendary bike that’s bullet proof.
You’ll need to de-Fred it but that’s easy. Upgrade the wheels and crank down the line and that thing is a total weapon.

De Fred the caad that’s easy
