Looks great.

Kind of knew this was coming. Cannondale the last of the bigger players in the bike business to not have a full-on aero road bike in the line-up.

Whoa that’s a beautiful bike. I really like how they’re dealing with the cables at the headset.

Hard to get excited about this while I'm still waiting for information on the SuperSlice to show up on the Cannondale website

That can't be aero. it has disc brakes.

You beat Tom A. to it...

Interestingly enough, Damon mentioned Tom in a Cyclingtips Podcast interview he did, and to my surprise, it had nothing to do with aerodynamics, it was a discussion on frame compliance/stiffness.

Cables in front of steerer look very similar to Fuji Norcom

The nice thing to see is the incorporation of the junction box & charge-port elsewhere on the bike, with the 2018 Dura-Ace Di2 group. It cleans things up considerably.

I know it's a cosmetic thing but it seemed crazy to have these beautiful $10,000+ road bikes then have a birds-nest of wires and the junction box hanging down underneath the stem. It just ruined the whole look of the front end of the bike for me.

It looks good. It will be interesting to see how many riders actually race on it once it gets past the prototype stage. Seems like (to my eyeball anyways) most pro riders are shying away from riding aero bikes in favor of the all-rounders, even moreso than before. Katusha (Canyon Aeroad) may be the exception.

We need a best in class rim brake version to compare it with.

Trek Madone would be fair game.

One thing I don't like is the seatpost, which is my major beef with most aero road bikes, including my own.
I want a bit of flex for comfort, and I doubt this will flex at all.
