let loose, have fun! This is the way i think a Prophet-type bike should be built up. And Cannondale would be wise to ditch aluminum in applications where dings are a certainty.
I've always had a thing for that bar, and a light travelly trailbike seems perfect application for it. the white hope hose is great, i have it on my O2 and love it. No saddle seems quite perfect. Kujos are mad grippy, and they used to (dunno if they still do) make a tubeless version. The new X0 stuff sounds pimp, so would be the perfect compliment to a bike like this. The stone edge stem in dope looking, and mega burly. The x-lite post is uber trick. All available cranks are a compromise. Until i find something as touchy-feely lovely as cork, that's what's going on all my fantasy bikes, and hopefully soon my real bike. the cogset is the heaviest part on a lightweight wheelset, so that's why i chose a 108g aluminum one.
