    What is the model of my Cannondale?

    Pretty sure that's a 2006 F300.

    Looking at the 1996 catalog I see that the 16" hybrid frame was KV style. Stock tires were 38s, so perhaps you can go a bit larger.

    That frame is a new one for me. I don't remember seeing a KV/DV hybrid frame. Do you know what year it is? I can tell you that most Cannondale road frames will fit 28s. Guessing that most hybrids would fit 38s or so.

    1” mtb fork

    I found one with exactly that length in the basement. Don't know what it came off of but it's a quality fork, has Campagnolo dropouts. Also found a Tange from a Diamondback that is long enough, but I still have the matching frame. Just mentioning it so you can be on the lookout for...

    1” mtb fork

    The fork that chumaman linked is a good option. While the early MTBs had lugged Tange forks, by 1988 they were all threaded unicrowns. I might have something similar in the basement, will have to check. Was 6.75" the length you need for threaded?

    1” mtb fork

    Looking for a rigid fork? What year? Lots of early Cannondales used Tange forks.

    Another ‘which model’ question

    Headset, stem, seatpost, crank look to be original. Front hub could be the original Miche. RD, shifters, and brakeset are replaced with Sante. Can't see the handlebar, FD, rear hub and rims. SunTour made the Cyclone group in white. Don't think it came on the SR400, and not sure how many...

    Another ‘which model’ question

    Guessing it is a 1986 SR400 as Brian mentioned. Crank looks right (Assuming DGLP translates to "double" GLP). "Official" names of lots of Sugino cranks had "D" in front of the the model that was printed on the arms. Best example I could find was this DGS, which shows both the model name and...

    SR500 touring bike Bottom Bracket question

    The ST500 was the touring bike model, it had a Shimano 600 triple crankset. The SR500 had a Shimano 600 double. The BB threads are 68 mm x 1.37 English. I'm pretty sure the double used a 116 mm spindle. Velobase lists the spindle length of the FC-6206 triple crank as 121.5 mm. There are...

    Cannondale CAAD1 what is it?

    I have lots of miles on the older 3.0 mountain frames. The CAAD1 should be at least as nice as the 3.0s were. Hope you enjoy it.

    Greetings from Brooklyn!

    Yeah, you always have to watch the 4 wheelers, as you can be fairly sure they aren't watching you. I narrowly missed a car that ran a stop sign at a T intersection.

    1997 Cannondale R200

    That's my point. They were CAAD1 MTB frames. Road frames are what I mentioned.

    Cannondale CAAD1 what is it?

    That XT rear derailleur is a nice upgrade.

    shipping black lightning

    I would think that size box is plenty big if wheels are placed alongside the frame. I always preferred to leave the rear wheel in the frame and put the front wheel alongside the frame on the non drive side. You're looking at about 10" longer box to do that. Advantage is that they will have a...

    Greetings from Brooklyn!

    Nice looking early road bike. I still have the 1987 that I bought used circa 1991. Feel for you in terms of the traffic. I can sometimes ride for an hour or more and never get passed by a car.

    SOLD : 1988/89 20" Mountain Frame

    Finally. I would have taken it but don't need any more projects.

    1997 Cannondale R200

    I don't think there was ever a CAAD1 road frame though. In 1996 most if not all the road frames were the 2.8s, which had been introduced several years earlier. I think you could consider them to be CAAD1 but they were never badged that way. 1997 saw the introduction of CAAD3 and CAAD2 road...

    Help ID Bud Light Cannondale

    The HF translates to 1996, June. It would have been a pretty low end model. As far as I know there wasn't a Bud Light model per se. I would say clean it up and use it. If the mechanical bits are good, it should make a good commuter as is.
