my *guess* is caad6. I believe that typically you don't get the "most current" caad in a given year until r1000 or above. I know the 2004 is a caad7 optimo (I ride one). that is why my guess is caad6. But I'm suspicious because I have only seen the word optimo on caad7 previously. I may also have no clue what I'm talking about...and am too lazy to check cannondale's tech site to confirm

Actually, 'optima' tubing designation was not used till the caad7 model.Guessing blows.
