I finally got the Cannondale finished! It took a village to get it back in shape and my thanks go out to Class Bicycles in Southbury, Conn and Austins Auto Works for his masterful painting of my new "used" fork and original stem. We specified Claris ST-2000 shift/brake levers, Claris RD-R2000...

Sorry for the long pause but I have been at the mercy of the bike shop and their pricing out of the rebuild. The only fork found that will work is bronze in color so I have to have it stripped and painted. Total cost for brakes, cables, derailleur, shifters, tires seat tube, pedals, handlebar...

Thanks for this information. I took a look at the Sub 1 a few weeks ago. It has been hanging around for a while. I didn't like the repair and if I wanted a repaired one, I would have mine repaired. The Alchemy fork is a beauty but too expensive. My Cannondale shop has sourced a fork that will...

Thanks so much for your help. I think Scott cobbled my bike together because I was sort of a novice rider and began riding the MS100 Bike Tours. My first Tour was on a mountain bike and that wasn't too successful. I wanted lighter and he gave me lighter. I think I borrowed a set of carbon fiber...

I forgot something...The thief scratched off the serial number on the bottom of the frame. But I found this after polishing near where the serial number is - B1-0302

I am back after a long absence and under a new screen name. A bit of back story about why this bike is special to me and my son. Scott Montgomery son of the founder, Joe Montgomery approached the company I worked for about sponsoring their new mountain bike team. I was responsible for Volvo Cars...
