    One more for the stable?

    We should all attempt to get all of our Cannondales into one photo.

    Gravel bikes

    I have two XR800s. My problem with them is that they are "vertically deficient", meaning neither seat or head tube is tall enough for me. I end up way too leaned over even on the largest size (58 cm IIRC). I much prefer the geometry of the Asian made CAADX from circa 2011. Pic is a 56 cm...

    Grail Bike

    I don't really have a grail bike in mind but I bought two dual suspension titanium Serottas from a guy in the southwest, one road, one MTB. Also bought a Ti Serotta Hors Categorie from a bike forum guy in Switzerland. Pic is of the softail road bike.

    Caad 3 Groupset upgrade, worth it?

    I would say no, not worth the money involved.

    Gravel bikes

    I use several old touring bikes as gravel bikes. Rode my '85 earlier in the week. It has 32 mm CX knobby tubulars.

    Back to Biking!!

    I think the range on the Road Warrior is 2001-2008. I've always wanted to try one but they seem relatively scarce. I think they will fit 32 mm tires (see 2007 400 and 500 specs) but most came with 25-28s.

    Pepperoni vs. Standard

    The Pepperoni would be lighter than the steel fork. What diameter steerer does your fork have? The 1993-4 Pepperonis were 1.25", but later ones were 1.125". I assume that the frames that came with a steel fork had a smaller diameter head tube.

    1993? M500 color identification?

    You might come close by mixing purples or adding blue or red to purple to get close. Hard to duplicate the Hyper-Highlight though, which I assume was a tinted clear coat.

    CAAD10?

    I couldn't see that paint in any of the catalogs in the CAAD10 year range. 2011-2013 graphics had CAAD10 decals on the seat tube, later years did not have that decal. Is it 10 speed? 11 speed was introduced on the 2014 models. I doubt it's a repaint but I guess it's possible. We see lots of...

    Hello to you!

    Looks like a very nice Super V. Wish I could find one that nice near me.

    Yes, some years the smallest size was a KV frame.

    Cannondale Color Examples / Pipe Patterns

    I saw some of these years ago on ebay but they were too pricey for me to consider buying.

    Cannondale Team Crest white.

    You might start with a bit where it won't show, such as inside the dropout. Let it dry and see how it matches. You might be able to then add a bit of another color to get a closer match.

    Delta T 2000!

    Looks to be a 1993 Delta V 2000. Worth a bit of driving just to have a look at the Austin Healey.

    Seriously!

    Seen on the rear window of a pickup yesterday: Dirty Hands, Clean Money.
