Klein vs. Cannondale

[ishaw]

Neither. The Klein paint and fork help make the bike look great, but the ride imho just doesn't match the looks.

The dale is just butt ugly.

As someone has suggested, sell both and get a bike you can ride without needing a spine transplant afterwards, or having to wear a bag over your head during

Ok, but. I won't sell Klein under € 4300 and Cannondale in this specification would also be at least € 1900, so I'm wondering which steel to buy for € 6200?

I don't think perceived value is a definitive gauge of quality, but if you do feel the need to spend the whole amount on a steel bike i have one or two i may be persuaded to sell for that price

The Klein is stunning and no doubt would fetch the amount you quoted.
But as nice as the Cannondale is and with the syncros bits and spinergys taken into account, as a whole bike would it really sell for that much? In parts it would for sure.

Out of interest what would your ultimate steel rider be?

Thats is the question Steel frames can be different. For example a gravel bike on Reynolds tubes with Syncros Revolution cranks... Hmmmm

I think Klein because they were so much rarer in my market BITD. Cannondales were a bit common.
