1995 M500 converted to a daily commuter. Original Frame & fork, headset, stem, handlebar and CODA brake levers. The rest has been changed including Alfine 8-speed gear hub and Gilles Berthoud stainless steel mud guards. I've had this bike since I was a 14 year old in 1995 and still love it!
Here is my M700. I just purchased it yesterday here in Belgium and he is actually almost like new! Everything is in perfect condition. Even the tires are like new... It's the new mate of my 87 SM500, 93 Delta V1000 and also my 96 Manitou HT, 87 Raleigh Maverick, 92 Marin Pine Mountain and finally my 92 Alpinestars Cro-Mega DX and my 2008 Yeti 575.
Here is my 87'SM 500 that I have found in Florida and have fully restored. Actually everything is stock except from the saddle...
Recently transformed it to a daily driver after I equipped it with SKS fenders and rear rack plus Vaude bag.
I also found this 1990 Cannondale SM 800 Red Shred on eBay.de, just around the corner.
Excellent condition 1st paint and 100% original! My favourite of my five Cannondales.
Edit: after 28 years the original Ritchey tyres had to go. I'm not too happy with that, but was necessary.
Recently I got this for a very reasonable price on ebay.de. The owner left it in his garage for 20 years.
Except some small chips it's in very good nick.
Changed tyres (IRC Mythos close to original spec), (alas not original) saddle and cables, that's all.
