Team Liquigas-Cannondale keeps the same frame already in use in 2010, the excellent Cannondale SuperSix Hi Mod, but change some components with which the bike is assembled. In the pictures we see the bike of Daniel Oss, which is based on the popular monocoque high modulus carbon and weighs about 900 grams. The head set is equipped with bearings from 1 inch and 1/2 below and 1 inch and 1/8 above, but most importantly it is equipped with carbon caps. The bottom bracket has BB30 standard, while the rearstay has a vertical and horizontal tubes asymmetrical hourglass. The fork is made of the same type of carbon in the frame. Since this year has been abandoned Campagnolo Record group, to switch to Sram Red. The group includes the controls, the rear and front derailleur, the sprocket, brakes and chain. The crank is Cannondale, but with SRM power detector. The seatpost is FSA K-Force Light carbon monocoque, while the saddle is a Fi'zi:k Aliante, but they can also used other saddles. Stem and handlebar are always FSA, in the photo we see a "simple" FSA SL-K stem and handlebar Energy New Ergo, both in aluminium. The bike falls easily under the UCI regulatory limit, then try not to use very light components, especially on a bike small in size. The wheels are Mavic for everyone, in the photo we see the excellent Ultimate Cosmic, but other models can also be used Mavic, depending on your preference and location. Speedplay pedals are very light, while the Elite bottle cage is widespread. Remains a very light bike, going down quietly to the regulatory limit UCI, with a very rigid frame and "eclectic", which is well suited to all locations, as demonstrated repeatedly by the athletes of the team Liquigas-Cannondale.
