    Am I weird????

    Agree with both of you. Can´t beat a brake. As soon as your grandson outgrows it keep it for him. No one knows where life will take him. If his future will be bike related your gift will provide the perfect story and proof for him. Just my 2c.

    sale prices overall

    "...but this point is a good one to explain why the people pay those 'high' prices." Compared to todays prices they appear cheap but they weren´t. Since my focus is on 90ies C´dales I didn´t bother that much with the new ones. Till yesterday. I spent some time finding a contact towards...

    sale prices overall

    I had to pay 2300 Deutsche Mark (more than the 1150€ today due to inflation) in 1994 for my stock M800 in Berlin/Germany - and I did. They must have at least doubled the prices for certain european markets. Germany is high tax anyway plus shipping, import fees aso. 2300 DM was a lot. At least...

    Dear black lightning, first of all thanks for your reply. I´m just back from a little round trip with the H400 (new chain, new cassette, works like a charm), found your reply and had a brain wave. We both agree on european market model. I know roller brakes from dutch bikes. They are supposed to...

    To whom it may concern

    Sorry! I forgot to mention that of course I checked the catalogs the site provides. Regarding the blue C´dale the closest I could find are the following types 1999/v1 H300, 1999/v2 H300/500 or 2000 H400. But nothing really fits due to the Nexave group set. The frame also only allows to fit...

    To whom it may concern

    My focus is on Cannondales from 1990 to 2000 since that´s the time when I discovered, owned and fell in love with them. Sadly I never had them for longer. They always got stolen. By that time I was living in Berlin and quality bikes didn´t made sense there. Therefore I only rode klunkers from...
