When i picked up the bike the guy i bought it from was cleaning out his shed.
When i told him i collect vintages bicycles he gave me a ritchey logic cranckset that he had laying around.
Totaly original with decals in goodshape :-)
Good to know about the rims, i alwas thought these were rims...
Thnx for the info, did not look into that yet
Makes it more logical that it was a frameset
for now i go for a classic look and drivabillity :)
The coda stem defenetly had to go but i kind of like the combination with the rest.
And it is all just like new
The 105 derailleur has to be swapped out
I put some 600 padles on
Idea is to go for 600, the group parts on the frame are like new......
Original was suntour (cranck and seatpost seem to be original)
It is all period correct.
Were they even exporting bicycles in the second year of production...
Are you sure thet the tektro,s are ok : spring?
In the first picture the levers look pretty close to eachother
Maybe loosen the bolts en set them back one step might help
I love the collor, never seen a racer this early (first year??) in the Netherlands before
Was wondering how many were imported in 1985
Have to get rid of that dealerdecal
Why are they always so hard to remove (and in places where you don,t want them) :)
Made a galery for this bike but it is not finished
Started to change the stem en steer for a 600 shimano with cinelli bars
Fixed a flite sadle wich i still had
The 600 group is in exelent shape
The wheels also 600 with super ligt wolber rims
The bike stood for al long time because it was missing...
That could be a option but i think the frame in the picture is not a KV
The last cable guide seems to be higher on the frame
Maybe you could fabricate a bracket by using the mounts for the rack
First year cannondae racer, stored for al long time because shifters were broke
Frame is in good schape, no dents minor scratches
In the Netherlands i never see these early racers up for sale so could not pass on this one
-Shimano 600 group incl. Headset
-Wolber super champion alpine rims...
Tip: just push them in the frame and flush them out with water, works great
Migt be thet jou can not use them annymore but the cam be replaced with somethong els
I used verry small nails once and just gulued them on the frame with superglue
2013 in mint state not so vintage but a great cannondale piece
Factory stickers were stil on the parts
First Owner passed away shortly after buying it and bike was in storrage for al long time
In the Netherlands a pretty rare find
Lefty fork
Nexus 3 speed
It has had a stem upgrade from...
