Cannondale Trikots

[kjop]

Since i'm infected with the Cannondale virus^^ i'm also reading since then about the history of the Cannondale-Universe... and this is also including cycling teams which were and are riding Cannondales. And therefore i'm very impressed by these old SAECO jersey styles from the aera from the early 2000. i found this exotic Cipollini-jersey. Do you know other kool trikots from Cannondale teams?

another legendary trikot was the 'legalize my cannondale' jersey, when cannondale started to use carbon parts on it's frames and they got too light for the regulators of the world tour races...

Here’s one on ebay. There are a few of them on there but unfortunately they are all too small. I would buy one in my size.

One seller says in their ad that they were for the 2001 Giro d’Italia.

cipollini had back then a timetrial kit with printed muscle fibres... that was incredible too
... just a shade above idahobrett's batman-kit

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.

That's some pretty cool stuff.
I've also noticed that most of the clothing that has lasted the ravages of time is the small stuff.
I used to deal with a LBS, that is now closed, that had a big rack of Cannondale clothing that was quite old sitting in the window fading in the sun. I wish, looking back, that I had offered the owner a lump sum and taken it all.
