    Super…what?

    Cannondale did a crash replacement program. These bikes would not have the model number on them. And the Manitou is a 1999. All in all.. you have a cool Super V!

    Need your help! What is this bike?? ‍♂️

    Welcome! This Cannondale would be a 2000+. It might be a 2006/08ish. Where the numbers are stamped, there would have been a bar code. That would have said the date of the frame. The rear drop outs make me think it is at least 2004+. Hard to tell the exact model... It looks like you have...

    1988 Upgrad

    I have sent a PM. If they are Vintage Cannondale decals. It is possible for the decals to be tricky sometimes. You would rub the decals over the clear. To get the decal to stick to the clear transfer tape. Once all the decals are transferred to the clear tape. You are ready to go!

    1989 Crit 3.0 build

    Hello, this is a 1990 probably built in 89. The rear dropouts are 90+. with no paint, you can built it to whatever model you like. I would look thru the 1990 catalog. :)

    Replace System Six 120mm Stem

    Yes, any 1 1/8th stem. I find shorter and more rise of the stem is better as the years get on. :)

    1991 M500

    Hello, Suntour and Shimano have different pull ratio's. It depends if you are going period correct. Or exact M500 restoration. If the bike got a upgrade down the road you could go with anything. For Suntour, the parts are harder to find than shimano. But any Suntour der would work of that time...

    Damaged clear coat?

    The best would be a photo so we know what we are talking about. If it is really bad, yes.. a do over... it is possible to color sand the area, clear and color sand that to blend. upload a photo and we can go from there.

    Rush Model?

    This could be a 2007 model for Europe. The decals are a little strange. The "Handmade in the USA" is odd. Do they look original? with a good clear over the decals?

    Missing a Cannondale part or decal?

    The problem is, after 1990. Each bike had a set that was just for that frame. It makes it difficult to produce.

    Wanted Downtube Shifter Boss / cable stop mounts

    Could you send me the failed one if you get a new one? I have been wanting to replicate this part, but its very tricky and very expensive to reproduce.

    Super V4000 Raven

    I agree. The raven is very cool. Prices can change. depending on size, condition. And also I agree with Mendon. Vintage bikes are kinda flat line right now. Where I live in California. They are dead. Nobody wants them. :(

    CAAD 4 Identification please

    Cannondale had drama in switch from 1989 to 1990 and from 1999 to 2000.. Do you have a full photo? or is there another SN? There would usually be 2 letters to determine the year. They might be under the guide.

    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    Cannondale used a lot of automotive colors. As well as Fender guitars. :) Cannondale used Ford Engine Blue on a few frames. I do not know if that was the "team blue" Here is also a resource for codes pulled from Dupont. https://vintagecannondale.com/info/restoration/
