I haven't used a current crank on a 2.8 frame but I don't think that there would be any clearance issues.

Hi Randy. I'd be interested to see both bikes. Just click on "Upload a File" to add pictures.

Sounds like you have a good plan. Have you investigated shifter/RD/cassette options yet? I will be interested to see what you end up with.

You probably were. Guessing you had traffic to deal with. It's not unusual to ride 20 miles in the country after dark here and never see another car.

What is wrong with the fork? The boot looks fine to me, just straighten out the bellows and zip tie it to the headset.

I would still keep an eye out for an F series Headshok bike on the local market. You might come up with a fork you can use for not much expense after parting out the rest of the bike.

Hi Larry. That's a 1998 SV700. Color is Bar-b-que Black with Split Pea swingarm. It's shown in the catalog in white but yours is the alternate color. There is a complete list of the original parts in the back of the 1998 catalog. Note that Cannondale would sometimes make substitutions...

Check out the serial number section to pin down the year of your bike, or post some pictures and I'll have a look. SV700 was made in a number of different model years from at least 1995-2002. What is wrong with your fork? Mendon Cyclesmith may be able to help...

I'm sure you will be fine with 40 miles. I once rode my M800 twenty miles one way to a friend's house to pick up a pair of wheels. Rode home in the dark with a big wheel box strapped on the rack with 2" of snow on the roads at 25 degrees.

Great looking bike and a fair price. I really like the looks of the 600EX parts.

So what fork are you going with? I haven't kept up with what's currently available.

Sounds familiar. I have mostly ridden rigid MTBs. While we don't have a lot of steep terrain here, we do have a lot of tree roots, branches, fallen trees, and all too often mud. I guess that the mud is better than the road tar packed between the calipers and the tire on a "memorable" road ride...

I might be interested in the PX3 if you want to let me know where it's for sale.

Can't tell you how many times I have been down that road. Hope that you can get it built up without regrets. I must say that even on projects on which I spent too much, I don't remember any that I regret.

I don't know of one.

Good for you. Sticking with the Campagnolo?

Super V or any other dual suspension frame has been on my want list for a while. Hard to justify for the amount of rough trail riding I do though.

I don't know a lot about them but I have a drive side arm here. I believe it's 94/58 BCD. It's square taper but they may have been made in Octalink or ISIS as well. Is the one you are looking at square taper? I don't have any loose rings that are the right bolt circle diameter, but I might...

I thought that the M739 was below what they usually sell for, but was really looking for a black Coda crank for the project.
