So I didn't actually need another project, but I had an almost complete ultegra tricolour group hanging around, and had always liked the Giant CADEX bikes... I remember when they first came out, they were very different to the usual steel frames around at the time but if I remember correctly, quite expensive too! Some ebay searching and I finally found a very decent frame at a decent price so the build begins...

headset fitted, along with bars, stem, seatpost and saddle. Wheels will not be staying onthis bike, they're just to get it set up and check position, etc. Still undecided on what wheels I'll be using in the end, I have a couple of options.

The plan at the moment is to build with what I have and see how far I get, then take it from there

Frame is a very decent 1660g (size 59 C-T), fork is 600g.

Very nice! From before CF frames went all blobby. I like the slightly forward-sloping top tube on these Giants. Enjoy!
