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.

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.

All original parts ! (except the Leather Brooks saddle with springs instead of plastic Brooks saddle)
I've got the frame and rebuilt it. Brand new old Panaracer Smoke Dart. Brooks saddle and grips

This was the final year, Team Volvo/Cannondale UCI XC racer - ridden by Tinker Juarez, Christoph Sauser, Kashi Leuchs, and U23 Danish sensation, Jakob Fuglsang.
Build specs are as follows:

Fork: Cannondale Headshok Ultra Fatty...
Original paint, fork and rear derailleur. The rest is changed to make the bike go faster. Very aggressive acceleration, excellent steering and handling. Weight 8,6 kg. Anything that doesn't make the bike go faster is stripped. The gearshift is my own creation. It consists of an old-fashioned racing gear shifter mounted on the handle bar. Works excellent and precisely. The bike has 8 gears so I don't need the front derailleur or the cables. There are 53 T in front and 12/20 on the wheel. The...
Got this M300 from 1997. Most of the original parts were replaced by better components i.e. WRA cranks, Magura Race-Line Brakes and SRAM ESP 9.0 rear derailleur.
