Custom Cannondale Cyclocross Retro Gravel Bike Build

In today’s much awaited episode I’ve got my hands on a super rare Cannondale Cyclocross from 2003 and it’s getting a much needed rebuild and update!

The bike has already been rebuilt at some point but not to a good standard - so it was time to build it to a standard it deserved.

I added a mix of shimano 105 and ultegra, making a 2x10 drivetrain to cover all bases both road and trail.

I also made sure the 25mm of travel from the headshok was moving freely!
