That's the date the frame was produced. New models came out late in the summer. Being July production it may have been a 2001 model rather than a 2000. I have a bone stock 1998 Silk Road, everything fits the catalog description. It is stamped IK, so November 1997 production; also a 1999...

Must have been a big dealer. Shop I used to go to in Moline never had more than one of anything.

That looks great. Nice to see the KW as well. Neighbor had a similar vintage Freightliner in the farm shop for years with the intention of restoring it. He died, his boys were less interested and the truck got sold. Hopefully to someone who will do something with it. Cabovers are out of...

It seems bikes sold in Europe are often hard to ID. Colors often seem to vary from USA spec, so perhaps it's best to ignore that angle. CAAD3 frames appear to have the cable stops on top, CAAD4 and CAAD5 have them well below center-line of the tube. Your frame was made in July, so I'd guess...

Can't recall ever seeing one of these, though you would think there would be a lot of them sold: 3.0 and 105 build.

Very nice work. Glad to see someone put that kind of effort into a restoration. Feel free to message me if you need help finding a part, or help shipping something from USA.

What about a 2000 F900? It was a disc frame and had fade paint with red at the BB.

There is this one on ebay, 162 mm steer tube. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cannondale-Pepperoni-Aluminum-26-Threaded-MTB-Fork-1-steerer/222805699760?hash=item33e0412cb0:g:flkAAOSwubFaZRsy

Sure wouldn't hurt to post it. What model and size is it? Did you hang on to the original fork? Might fetch more on eBay but there are fees involved there. Check out bikeflights for shipping. It's the cheapest way to ship most any large package, and very easy to use. FedEx is the carrier...

If I owned it, it would take more than $150 to get it away from me.

I think you have it right. Cannondale switched the brand decal to the down tube for 1991, so perhaps yours is a late 1990 model. It's also not unusual for bikes sold in Europe to differ in details from the USA models. The 1991 SM700 was very nearly the same as the 1990. Ritchey rims were a...

Here are the flat back for Ultegra and below. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Shimano-CS50-Housing-Stops-for-Flat-Back-Shift-Bosses/122737611944?epid=9011366314&hash=item1c93bb54a8:g:cgQAAOSwWflaR-XG

Being CAAD4 narrows it down a bit. Could be a 1999 F1000, F3000. The F2000 and F4000 had disc brakes and the lower models were CAAD3. Could be a 2000 F1000SL. Most of the 2000 CAAD4 Headshok frames were disc but the F1000SL was rim brake. Cannondale equipped some bikes with Magura...

Here are some Dura-Ace ones with a flat back. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Shimano-DURA-ACE-SM-ST74-Down-Tube-Barrel-Adjuster-Shifter-Bosses-Flat-Bottom/272998881382?hash=item3f90005866:g:kSkAAOSw4T5XHc0-

I'm not sure if Shimano made these with a flat back side as they did for the Cannondale downtube shifter mounts, but these will work for you...

I'm not finding any front suspension models in that era that have that finish. There were a couple in '96 but they didn't have the same decals. Is it CAAD2 or CAAD3? Perhaps components would give us a clue.

Is is painted silver or clear coated natural aluminum?

I couldn't find a front disc/rear V brake model in the 1998 catalog, or a Super V with that fork. My guess is that it was built up from a frameset. The Super V 1000 was available in Iris Blue with yellow decals, but the catalog says yellow swingarm.

Hey Mike, I have a black/orange 1991 SM800 frameset in the basement. Believe it's a 20". I might come up to the swap in Madison next weekend if the weather's not too bad. Could bring it along if you will be there and want to see it.

I think the first disc on a Super V was on the front of a 1997 Super V 4000. If you discount the Ravens which I'm guessing you are, the first full disc SVs were the 1999 SV 2000 and 900. Pretty sure the last was the 2002 SV 700. So there should be several models in that time span to look for...
