    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    The forks in the photo are a pretty close match. I've seen more variance in separate mixes of the same code. If the Fatty is original, the repainted fork looks just a bit lighter to me. I think the other two blues you posted look lighter than the 5017.

    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    The RAL 5017 looks pretty close to my eye.

    Unknown Cannondale mountain bike

    I don't believe it's a Cannondale. I've never seen a Cannondale that had weld beads left showing.

    It's a 2010 model. You can find it in the 2010 European catalog here: https://www.cannondale.com/en/USA/Support/BikeArchive

    Serial number on my hi mod frame

    I have print catalogs here from 2013-2016. Post a pic of your bike and I'll try to figure it out. List of components other than Red will be helpful. Here's the 2013 version, Mariner Blue with Race Red and 40 blue accents. Sorry, can't get the file to upload.

    CAAD4 ... thinking about buying

    I would have to look around and measure the rims on which I have 28 mm tires. I'd guess that I have run 28s on rims of 19 mm or so. The tightest clearance point is usually the brake caliper or the underside of the fork crown, that is to say circumference rather than width. I suspect that a...

    CAAD4 ... thinking about buying

    I meant that the fork would bring good money on its own. I haven't looked for a Slice fork specifically. Last Cannondale fork I bought came off Synapse. I met the guy on a street corner in Chicago and gave him $50 for it. I'd expect to pay more for almost any 1" fork in similar condition...

    What are your priorities on wheels? The nice thing about Campagnolo is that they haven't changed the freehub design since 1997, so there are lots of hub and wheel options out there. If you are OK with a conventional 32 spoke wheel, the oversized axle 10-11 speed era hubs are a great choice...

    CAAD4 ... thinking about buying

    Sounds like a 2000 R800T that got special paint. The blue CXP 23s were only offered in 2000, and the 105 triple and Coda parts are correct for an R800T. There were a couple of grey fades in 1999, but they were both on R1000s which were CAAD3s. The Reynolds fork was never offered on a factory...
