Showcase
My first bicycle in a long while, I chose it for the comfortable ride the front and rear suspension offered. It was 'cutting edge' at the time of purchase, with it's relatively lightweight aluminum frame, and uniquely engineered active SL construction, and I loved the quick release features! I also loved the color. It was super compact and portable inside or outside a vehicle, and easy to carry up a flight of stairs. I would definitely prefer it to some of the more recent models...
Bought used, only changed raceface crank 1x9, and stem and handle bars
After two years of gathering dust in my neighbour's attic, it took some TLC and a few spare parts (new wheels) to get this baby back in road condition.
My Cannondale M300 with some minor cosmetic upgrades
Bought this bike in 1998 used while in college and then it sat around in the garage for some years until I decided to clean it up and give it some flare, now its my favorite bike again!
Changed the brakes to a Shimano Promax(?) V-brake set up with combined gears (Got free, second hand)
New Yellow gear and brake lines $20
Sun 26\" x 2.125\" (yellow) tires $40 new
Origin8 yellow saddle $20
Other then that most of the bike is original...
This bike was from warszawa user,i saw it on e-bay and i falled in love of this machine...
It's a lite bit modificated since....but she's stil giving the best's ridings.

This is my beloved Cannondale Delta V1000.
Any one know if I can change my anterior suspension with a Lefty suspension? Do I need some adapter??Also I would like to set a disk brake in the posterior wheel... Anyone know if there is some extension I can use?
Paid $300 on CL. I had fun on eBay adding and building the bike the way I liked it. Deore xt rims and nobby nick tubeless tires. Fox air rear shock, elixir hyd brakes, xt crank and running gear, the fork is super fatty ultra off an 05 f600. It's rides great and I enjoyed building it and riding it. Thanks I'm stuck on the Cannondales, I really don't why but just love them.

Got this one second hand from switzerland. Former owner upgraded it with a mix of Dura Ace 8-speed sti's, derailleurs, hubs etc. and Suntour Superbe brakes and crankset. I slowly upgraded to full Dura Ace 7700 9-speed group. Wheels are Dura Ace 7700 hubs laced to 28° Mavic Ceramic rims. Stem and post are good old Syncros, made in Canada.
Still rides like a dream …
