Technical Contributor: For members who share their technical expertise. - Issue reason: Trev has owned several boosted fords and has really contributed a lot of info on them. His posts in the bike section are also very helpful. I think he should be recognised as a technical contributor. 
Default Re: New to cycling

Won't cut the steerer until I am sure I have it set up right. But after the epic run in ride I didn't pull up too sore, exhausted and sitting in the corner sucking my thumb, but not too sure, which is a good sign.

It is the top of the line endurance model, so big 28 tyres and plenty of compliance, rolls sooo smooth and is comfortable. Not a real lightweight as it is Di2 and disc brakes, but Dura Ace everything apart from the cranks which are Cannondale's top of the line set. Everything on it is as it comes standard. As for carbon gears, dunno, I think some of the Dura-Ace cassette is carbon or something. Like my Strava profile says, "Know absolutely nothing about bicycles, just push the pedals and look at the scenery..." :-)
