CAAD 10 Build

This is the frameset I have on order, Delivery expected sometime in May.

26th April - frameset arrived.

First job was to install the crown race using a piece of plastic pipe from the vacuum cleaner and a rubber mallet for it go down on top of the forks.




I installed the forks and the headset bearings and cut a small amount of the carbon steerer. The top cap needs to be seated on top of the stem to get preload on the bearings and does not a spacer above the stem therefore, otherwise you get play in the forks.

I will get a more precise fitting for the steerer length when I have carried out a bike fitting.

I will keep the current 84 degree stem until I can source a more aggressive -17 degree one.
