The 700C bike has a travel of 25mm because of the design of the headshok, the cartridge has a bigger travel but the fork just not allow more than 25 mm.

That looks like a sort of DD2 cartridge that has a lock up option. It should have some oil in it, but not fully filled I think. It is for damping only, the 'spring' action is done by the elastomer Edit Found this by coincidence. Youtube video

What year is the bike, do you know?

Ok, crisis averted. I found a ferule that exactly fits the cable stopper. It is big enough for another cable including an extra smaller cable stopper. So it is a nice tight fit. What also helped is that I figured out by looking at a lot of images from SV's, mainly on this website, that the...

Ow, I am very much interested in the Frank Zappa ferrules. Do you remember were you bought them? I found 2 cable end caps sized 6,3 mm-ish that seem to fit but I have to check if that works. Close inspection learned that the gable guides are not drilled out completely so maybe I can fix them...

Currently I am working on the restoration of a Super V 1000 polish. I would like to bring it back to original state as best as possible. As with a lot of bikes from this era, after market Magura hydraulic brakes were installed. To guide the brake lines the cable stops were drilled out to make...

Just received the bolts I ordered and I can confirm these are 3/8-16 x 1 1/4 bolts. I ordered them as stainless steel and paid € 13,40 for four bolts including shipping. So I now have a few extra for 'you never know'. For those in Europe If you want to order them yourself from this Dutch...

Quick update I found a company in the Netherlands that sells single stainless UNC bolts. I have send them a picture of my original bolt and the M10 bolt to see if they can confirm it is a 3/8-16 x 1 1/4 stainless bolt. If they confim this I will order the bolts and let you know if it is a 3/8-16...

Here is an image of both allen key bolts. The clean one is the M10 X 25 mm They look the same but now I have both. The M10 has like 9,8 mm wide thread and the UNC has 9,5 mm thread. I will do some research and see how to get these from a EU supplier. Since brexit stuff form the UK has become...

I have 2 frames here comparable with a 1992 Delta V1000 model. From one of the bikes the bolts to attach the spring arm are missing. I ordered M10 bolts but after trying to mount them I discovered I ordered the wrong parts. Does any one of you have an idea what type of bolts are used. I...

No sorry It was made around the same time as the pong bike (it also has Magic Crank) and appeared in some magazines after factory visits were they spotted the bike. If you search for Cannondale r4000 protoype you may find more info. Edit, that's funny, I used to live in Soest (the Netherlands)

In 2021 a book came out named "The Cannondale Archives" It is a very limited edition about the history from '71 to '21 and not available for the public. I have seen one being offered on ebay for like $900 and then some. In the Netherlands they have one for viewing at the office of the The...
