    Badly skipping chain

    That's usually caused by a new chain on a worn cog. I would try replacing the cassette or freewheel with a new one.

    F what?

    It's possible that disc specific CAAD3 frames were made during the 1999 model year, but they don't show in the catalog. Great looking bike no matter what year it is.

    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    Thanks for checking. I'm guessing that was originally sold by Cannondale. It's too bad that the paint code isn't present, as that would have been the easiest way to be sure of the matching paint. https://www.quest-ip.com/resources/ral-colors/

    F what?

    Yes, 1999 frames were CAAD4 from F1000 - F3000. 1998 frames were all CAAD3 V brake only, no disc production models. Disc specific frames didn't show up until 2000 and were either CAAD4 or CAAD5.

    Volvo Cannondale Limited Edition

    Looks to be an 18" frame.

    Volvo Cannondale Team Replica colour code.

    Is there a paint code number on that bottle? Looks like it would be in the 5000-5021 range of the Valspar paint chips.

    86 SR500 finally finished (except for tape)

    Sounds like everything should work. Did you check to be sure bar clamp diameter of the new bar is the same as your stem? Guessing you might need to snag a couple of MTB brake cables, but I don't know those levers.

    F what?

    They both appear to be 1999 model year frames. 1999 F1000 and above were all CAAD4. F900 was CAAD3, had disc and canti mounts, and the Fatty D fork. That's the closest frame/fork combination I see to your two frames. The USA F900 didn't come in Team Blue though. We don't have a 1999...

    I believe that is a 2004 Bad Boy.

    new member shock question 94 Cannondale Super V 1000

    I don't know much about the early Super Vs. The 1995 SV 700 still used the aluminum swingarm, while the other models used the new carbon swingarm. All 1995 SVs came with Fox air sprung shocks. In 1996 the two remaining high pivot SV models came with Fox coil-over shocks. I'd check with Craig...

    Need help replacing my stolen Hooligan

    Some municipalities register bikes by serial number. There are also web sites where you can list your stolen bike's serial number in case someone comes across it. Knowing the serial number mainly provides evidence that a recovered bike is actually yours. Taking pictures of your bike and its...

    CAAD 3 Paint

    I don't have any specific recommendation. I usually buy touch up paint at the hobby shop, have had some luck with fingernail polish. Sometimes have to mix two colors to get a decent match. John Deere yellow with a bit of white might make a close match for Team Yellow.

    Age of my Scalpel

    Decal style looks more like 2003/2004 to me. I have the USA catalogs for those years but not the European ones. Check your bottom bracket shell for a bar code sticker. If it's there, you should be able to determine the model year, at least within 1 year. I'm not clear if the bar code year...

    Need help replacing my stolen Hooligan

    That there don't seem to be many out there works for you in recovering your stolen bike (if you have serial number) but against you in finding another to replace it. Are you at all interested in options other than another Hooligan? There are lots of inexpensive 26" and 700C wheeled bikes out...

    Need help replacing my stolen Hooligan

    My guess is that the thieves sit on them for a while before selling. Really organized crooks might move them to another city for resale. They don't seem to be very common, none currently listed on eBay, 5 sold in the USA in the past 3 months...

    Cannondale Volvo limited edition

    Frame series doesn't appear to be listed on the 1995 frames. I thought there was probably a decal but my M900 doesn't have one.

    Add a sub thread for Non Cannondale builds?

    Nice job on the road bike. What fork is that? What was the total cost of the frame, including the class?

    Delta V 600 on eBay

    Guessing that wasn't too far from the original price in 1992/3 (?, didn't look it up). Will be interesting to see if it sells, as it's so close to my 1992 Delta V. Mine is used but looks like new and has a mix of XC Pro and Comp.

    Looking for a 40mm clamp stem to fit Silk Road

    I have some, but nothing with an extension that short. 26.0 bar clamp diameter? What angle do you want?

    Need help replacing my stolen Hooligan
