In the spring of 2015 I scored a couple of great deals at a local bike swap meet. One of them was this Cannondale CAADX frame. It came with the frame, fork, headset, seatpost, cockpit, brakes, and Shimano 105 shifters, all for $50. It was in pretty much new condition with no scratches or wear. So I added a new set of Shimano Sora derailleurs, a Vuelta cyclocross crankset, new pedals, and a hand-built wheelset to get it rolling. I listed it on Craigslist for $600 and it was sold the next day. If only every build was this easy!
