I have some new rear Cannondale rear racks in the attic. Purchased from Bikewagon about 10 years ago. I should have one on a bike somewhere but don't remember what bike. Will look for one.

At least it's a pretty generic font. A facsimile shouldn't be too hard to reproduce. If you do it you should make a bunch of them.

My impression was that it was for the ovalized seat stays, though I'm surprised that could be patented.

Where are you headed?

You have the build date right. It's a 54 cm. The brake lever hoods haven't been available from Shimano for some time - planned obsolescence. I'd guess that your components (assuming nice condition) might fetch $300-400 if sold individually on eBay. I've seen early road framesets sell for...

Where did you purchase it? Black doesn't show as an option in the US catalog but could have been a mid year introduction. I'd start by trying to find sales of the individual components on eBay. Condition is everything in the vintage market. I think the bike would be worth more with original...

Great that you found a reasonably priced frame. I like the period correct build. My 1993 M800 is one of my favorites. I've never felt the need to change anything from the stock build.

Thanks. I really appreciate you digging up all the old documents. I didn't remember that even though it is posted in the catalog/ads section.

Measure the internal diameter of your fork. I don't own a 2.8 frame of that vintage but my understanding is that the outside diameter of the fork was 1 1/4", which would make the internal diameter 1 1/8", or 28.6 mm. Basically the only design/dimension difference between a Control Tech quill...

Thanks. I didn't know aero bars existed that weren't round but assumed that they were round enough to take conventional bar end shifters. I've long given up on time trials but they are nice on a gravel/cx/touring bike. Let me know if you come up with pricing.
