Yours looks like a proper ratter, mine is a useless lapdog.

do you live on a steep hill?

 

[ChromeChainstay]

yes it's hilly, on the ocean.

i mostly ride a short 5 min loop with a hill. 6 loops 6 intervals when i have time. Among other loops. quite dry this summer and cool in Maine

The Cadex were a great aul yoke.I think the first non steel bike apart from Dural to challenge the steel status quo.I had a few pre Giant TCR including a very nice kingfisher coloured one

Since I have managed to reach my 70th year without tearing down any Alpine descents, I guess that is unlikely to happen. I am more worried about cattle grids at 10mph.

I'm "only" 54 and I also have a Cadex. I've nearly finished building it, so i've yet to go out on Its Maiden voyage. There aren't any cattle grids to worry about here but can you say about Its characteristics? I've put a carbon fork on it. The decals are really eye catching, very period for the time.

Haven't had a chance to ride it yet, too much else on. Everyone seems to like them though and yes the decals are great!
