Hi all, I'm once again looking for a needle in a haystack (or actually two), and am therefore turning to the community with hope: 1990 3.0 frame in size 20" Pepperoni fork with 1" steerer (long enough for a 20" frame or longer) Paint scheme and condition are completely irrelevant, but the...

Its so cool to see what an informative discussion developed here, with real insiders to Cannondale posting :) @Nico Thank you for your input! I was wondering whether you could comment more on the pumping / bobbing topic. Pumping and bobbing refer to the same phenomenon? Or are they different...

Thank you for these helpful answers! I also came across this super helpful post at MTBR forum which helped me a lot - to quote "archone":

Hi all, I am trying to understand the difference between the fundamental Super V swingarm design options: - 1993 - 1995 - Aluminium or Carbon "Elevated Chain Stay" Swingarm with higher pivot point and shock against the seat support - 1996 onwards - Aluminium "Super Active" swingarm made from...

I am looking for the cannondale branded one ideally, or at least the identical stem so I can add the decal myself :) Hope somebody here may be able to trace one

Dear community, for a Cannondale SM2000 1990 restoration project I am desperately looking for the according quill stem - the "Cannondale 285" stem. It's a Nitto production one with a cable roller in steel (some were produced in aluminium, also fine). Size does not matter that much: Here's...

Thank you :) Its a 2.1 tyre. I can really recommend the Schwalbe Billy Bonkers, as they are light (490-500g), look vintage, offer great grip on dirt and are surprisingly fast.

This size is perfect (18"), one size larger would perhaps also be tolerable. The reason I am still looking for a frame set is because this one is a restored on (see gallery), and whilst nice, I am looking for one in mint condition to put up on a wall in completely period correct. Got the...

Found one in the end, here's the result. Still interested in any offers of this exact frame set, though :)

Hi, Thanks for the suggestion, I know - it's a bit peculiar, but I really am set on the M2000 because of the beautiful paint job. I have the M500 already, but want the M2000 as I find it so shiny-flashy-beautiful :cool: And painting this chameleon paint myself is not an option, as I want it...

Hi all, I'm Rob, another vintage Cannondale fan, living in Berlin :) I collect and race M Series MTBs from the mid 90s, and started the vintage Cannondale Strava Club: https://www.strava.com/clubs/vintage-cannondale We race MTB, Gravel, and Road - works well with the fully rigid M Series :)...

Hi all :) Looking for a 1995 Cannondale M2000 frame + fork (or complete bike) in size M (18") or L (20") in great condition. So no blistering paint / corrosion and ideally few scratches. If only the frame and no fork is available, I'm still interested. I am indeed only looking for the 1995...
