    Where did you ride your Cannondale today?

    I should get a picture of the gold plated one on my Black Lightning.

    SR500 with "custom" graphics

    1987 was the only year for the custom graphics. I've never seen one except in photos.

    Custom triathlon roadbike by Andreas Niedrig

    I can't tell what CAAD number it is but it's a lot closer to 2005 than 1995.

    Crit Talk

    I haven't looked at the results from the local Memorial Day crits. It's been years since I attended the races. Back when I attended there were always pro teams racing. Past winners include Jeff Bradley, Tom Shuler, Noel DeJonckhure, Robbie Ventura, and Hayden Godfrey.

    Headset bearings for 2002 caad4 r500

    Check with Cane Creek in NC. Replacing the complete headset is another option. Guessing these would work but I would check dimensions...

    Is there a bar code sticker on the frame? The first letter would give the year of manufacture. N = 2002, O = 2003, P = 2004, Q = 2005, R = 2006, S = 2007

    1999 CAAD 4 R4000

    I've always liked my Team Blue R4000 but have never seen the other two paint schemes except in photos. I have a CAAD3 R4000 with the flip flop paint that's admittedly much flashier than Team Blue.

    1999 CAAD 4 R4000

    Interesting that the USA Fade was discontinued and Team Blue substituted. I wonder why.

    Out of Commission for a While

    Sorry to hear this. I can relate to the bruising and soreness. I hit a raccoon and went over the bar, landing on my hip. I had bruising from kidney to navel, very ugly. The next time I hit one I got a concussion and broken collar bone. Are you having trouble unclipping? Have you played...

    1999 CAAD 4 R4000

    Another paint job that's not in the catalog. Mine is Team Blue with yellow decals. I've never seen one in ChromaLusion Jade.

    Not one, but two, primo condition 1989 SM400 mountain bikes

    Wish that blue one was an SM800, which was my first Cannondale - stolen in 1995. I've never seen another.

    2001(?) XR800 Cyclocross Cannondale

    I think that they were black only that one year. The first few years of CX bikes were only sold in one color - at least according to the catalogs. Interesting that the Headshok version is titled CX Ultra in the catalog but still has XS800 decals.

    Upgrading groupset on 1992 T600

    Could you loosen the left side nuts enough so that you could get wrenches on the right side and lock them, then go back and adjust and lock the left side?

    Restoring a 1993 R900

    I'll try to remember to check a 28 on one of my 2.8 frames. I know that I've run them on earlier and later Cannondales but the aluminum fork on the 2.8s might have less clearance.
