I have no doubt you will love this legit race bike. am I seeing Flight Deck shifters there? are the electronics working on it?

I had no idea there were electronics in there! It shifts quite well, but the drivetrain is quite grimey and needs a good clean. Will do that over the weekend.
The Klein for 700 looks quite good, it has been 1x converted, but I have no more space in the apartment anymore lol: Might sell my Triban RC500 now that I have this. Tire clearance on the CAAD seems to be extremely tight though, don't know if it'll even take a 28.

Yeah the flight deck connects to biking computers, I am not sure if they work with modern computers though.
I think 28c will fit in *just* barely if you want to risk it. I checked on mine and 25c looks about right. Come to think of it, that is not terrible. My 15 year old younger SuperSix Evo barely fits 25c tires so I would say for a 2002 frame that clearance is pretty great. Those were the days when 23c tires were the most common on race bikes.
