    1985 SC300 Town & Country

    I can't recall seeing a size that wasn't in the catalog before. I'm thinking that the 1985 catalog has the wrong sizes listed. 1986 sizes for the same frames were all even numbers. Great bike.

    1-1/4 " Threadless stem adaptor/conversion

    I thought that Nitto might make one. They have a huge range of products.

    That one is close enough that I could pick it up. Too bad that it's not bigger.

    Unknown model with Campagnolo Chorus from 1988?

    I don't know if Cannondale printed catalogs showing photos of all models in those years. There were some years with more than one catalog.

    1-1/4 " Threadless stem adaptor/conversion

    Does anyone make a 1 1/4" quill to threadless adapter? Simple to make but surely weighs quite a bit more than the Innicycle setup.

    Upgrading groupset on 1992 T600

    What model of saddle? I couldn't find it on their site.

    Mavic MTB tribute

    I'm not sure if all Mavic posts were black but a black one is shown on the bike in the 1991 catalog photo. My 1992 R1000 should have a black Kingsberry, which I have not been able to find. If you look at the 1991 and 1992 catalog photos, the posts appear identical. The Kingsberry posts that I...

    1988 SM500

    It looks great. Reminds me of the team blue with yellow decals models from the late 90s.

    Highest touring model seen

    I have purchased 4 or 5 Cannondale touring bikes from the 1980s but would agree that more road models were sold. Later touring models seem to be more scarce than the early ones.

    Unknown model with Campagnolo Chorus from 1988?

    I wonder if it could have been a mid model year introduction. If so likely would have been called SR1000. I think that the 1990 models have the paint color split closer to the center of the tubes. No Campagnolo on Cannondales in 1991 as far as I can tell. Does it have a Regina freewheel?

    Upgrading groupset on 1992 T600

    The lock nut for the hub should be easy to find if you want to keep the present rear wheel - if only for a spare. If my bike I would keep it pretty much original except for maintenance items. Bar end shifters would be a nice addition. The indexed 7 speed Shimano bar end shifters are getting...

    Mavic MTB tribute

    Great find there, looks to be all original. Does it have the Mavic seatpost and Turbo saddle? I have a pair of wheels with the Dakar hubs. I don't remember what the rims are but either 700C or tubulars.

    Where did you ride your Cannondale today?

    Known locally as a muriel. Friend that came up with that also called a mid sized Chevrolet model a Marty Carlo.

    Good Morning from Portland

    That's a nice looking T600. I like that it has fenders. I think of Portland being really rainy but don't remember rain when I've been there.

    Cannondale Trikots

    Didn't the team wear gold one year for at least one stage? Seems like it had some Roman theme. Another time in solid yellow when Cipollini? was in the yellow jersey. I think the team got fined for wearing alternative colors.

    Wanted Wanted Cannondale Expert Disc 32 H Rim for F900 SX

    Changing rim models could result in having to buy new spokes, as the diameter of the seating surface of the nipples can vary considerable for rims that fit the same size tire. Cannondale wouldn't have made the rims but I don't know what company would have at that time.

    Threadless stem adaptor/conversion - opinions?

    Glad to hear that the wheels could be trued up. Shouldn't be hard to find a stem that works. $300 sounds reasonable for the time trial bike if it's in good shape.

    Wanted Wanted Cannondale Expert Disc 32 H Rim for F900 SX

    I can't see the profile of the rim very well. This WTB would be a reasonable match once the decals were removed...

    Mavic Ksyrium wheels

    You could race on the CXPs but most folks you race against will have higher end wheels. Train on the heavy wheels, race on the light ones. I've had several pairs of Fulcrums but never any of the high end ones. I've not had a problem with them. Be sure to get a Shimano freehub body as some...

    Wanted Wanted Cannondale Expert Disc 32 H Rim for F900 SX

    I wonder if there might be an alternative that's not Cannondale branded. Post some photos of the rim and some measurements.
