What I really like about Cube bikes is they come out of the shop with top notch tyres. Not like just about everybody else, who fit a cheap tyre to hit the pricepoint, and leave it up the customer to replace nearly new rubbish tyres, with something decent.
Regarding the wheelset on that Peloton - I don't think that you'll have any problems, and certainly not any more so than with whatever the CAAD10 comes with.
I have Easton EX50 on my cyclocross bike, and they are still 100% true after 5 cyclocross races. That's a lot of abuse.
Regarding the difference between Cube and Cannondale - I reckon that you'll be happy with either, the CAAD 10 is more hardcore though.
That's really good info!, cheers!
I was all set to look at a Cannondale synapse but the 105 isn't available in my size or on the deal i wanted. I didn't like the look of the 2012 bike and even with a deal on it, it's not really appealing. After a brief go, i much preferred the geometry on the Synapse to the CAAD.
However, with the cube i'm not looking at the Agree range as well as the Peloton. If i can get a good deal on an Ultegra spec even or find a 105 i'm happy with, i'll go with that, but so far i can't work out which Peloton or Agree is really me. It'll probably have to wait until January when they are widely in store.
