    Cannondale Volvo limited edition

    Seems like a good starting point. For the OP, is the frame labelled 2.8, 3.0, or 3.8? I have a 1995 2.8 frame, but can't recall if it's labelled as such.

    Need help replacing my stolen Hooligan

    Sorry to read this, been there. Hope you have the serial number. Besides eBay, keep a close eye on craigslist. Enable all the sites under "include other areas" - you have to go through the list and check each location, six at a time. Once done your searches should cover all of WI, much of...

    Add a sub thread for Non Cannondale builds?

    I'd be OK with it, or not. I've got lots of other brands, have occasionally posted a picture of one in a Cannondale thread from time to time.

    1991 SE2000 - brand new in the box!

    I have a bunch of NOS SunTour cassette hubs and NOS 7 and 8 speed cassettes.

    2005 f600 Furio

    Really tough for me to say, not knowing you or the terrain you're going to be riding. I don't see any real good reason to get rid of the triple. I have triples on all my MTBs. 9 speed cassettes were available in 11-36 and 12-36. I'd think with the right sized chain ring you might find a...

    2005 f600 Furio

    I would experiment with the 9 speed parts you have first. See how you get along riding in just the middle ring.

    1991 SE2000 - brand new in the box!

    Wow, that's quite a find. Are you going to try to build to catalog spec? If not, I have some NOS parts that would be period correct - Campagnolo rims, SunTour hubs and cassettes.

    2005 f600 Furio

    Are you thinking of a modern 1 X build with a wide range cassette?

    1991 SE1000

    Moulton used a 30.4 bottom cup on some of their bikes. Perhaps you could get two bottom cups from them. There were also East German and Austrian headsets made in 30.6 and 30.8 sizes. With careful measuring, I'm guessing you could file the head tube to fit an oversized headset. A small amount...

    Cannondale M600

    I think you have it right, a 1994 M600 in what looks to be excellent condition and mostly original. I'd guess the XT derailleur was original despite what's listed in the catalog, and it's an upgrade to boot. I have no idea what the market for it would be in Melbourne, but if it was local to me...

    86 SR500 finally finished (except for tape)

    Lots of question marks. I've been riding for 40 some years and have never broken a chain or a cable. You will have to elaborate about the wheels. Is the problem with the hubs or the spoke tension? The 6400 RD should work fine for 6/7 speed for sure, and probably for 8 speed. If it's not...

    86 SR500 finally finished (except for tape)

    Those frames have a short wheelbase but the rest of the geometry isn't unusual for a road bike.

    Looking for number

    Looks like your bar code sticker is missing. It would have had the year code. Can you see if there is a sleeve in the BB shell, separate from the shell itself? I had a CAAD9 road frame that was sleeved for threaded cups. Dealers installed them when they wanted to use cranks other than...

    86 SR500 finally finished (except for tape)

    You will get used to the handling.

    1984 SR700

    I would guess somewhere in the $200-300 range. You could likely net more by parting it out.

    Looking for number

    Paint/decals look like a 2008 Taurine Team, but that was a BB30 frame. Guessing yours is not as it has an XT crank.

    86 SR500 finally finished (except for tape)

    Looks good. We had a bit of a break from the humidity today but it was still in the upper 80s when I rode late this afternoon.

    CAAD 3 58cm Frame/Fork Weight

    They never listed frameset weights, other than in "2.8" and "3.0" era, as far as I can remember. I don't have any bare CAAD3 frames to weigh. Closest I have is a 60 cm CAAD7.

    F2000

    Try again to answer my question about the brakes if you like.

    1984 SR700

    Are you sure it's 1984? Perhaps post serial number. It would have had downtube shifters originally but the Sora (?) STI isn't necessarily a bad thing.
