    Back to Biking!!

    They were not CX frames, had caliper brakes with more relaxed geometry than the RXXXX road frames. I wouldn't expect them to fit much above a 28 mm tire, but I haven't owned one.

    SOLD Front derailleur. Triple front (52/42/30), 8 speed

    I still find it hard to believe that a difference of one tooth count between two chainrings can cause a dramatic difference in a derailleur's ability to shift. I admit that I haven't tried the combination. I do have a NOS braze on Sora FD-2303 here, you would need a 31.8 clamp adapter. My...

    R400

    The only CAAD3 frame I have is a first year R4000 and it has down tube shifter bosses, so that's where the cable adjusters are located if you have bar mounted shifters. I couldn't tell from the pictures what your frame has but it may only have cable casing stops. In that case what you want is...

    sale prices overall

    What we in the USA would term a "trade in". I just don't understand why the 2199 doesn't appear on the invoice. That would be the starting point here, and the 699 would be deducted from that on the invoice.

    SOLD Front derailleur. Triple front (52/42/30), 8 speed

    I doubt you will find one that was meant for 30/42/52 and 8 speed. I think your options are 9 speed Sora, Tiagra, 105, Ultegra, Dura Ace or 8 speed Claris. I really doubt the ring difference would be a factor. I'd be more concerned about the cable pull. I'm not sure if front cable pull...

    Wanted 1996 M900 or M500 frame 20"

    I love my M800 and M900. 1993 and 1995 respectively. Not sure how much difference there is between a 1995 2.8 series frame and a later CAAD frame but I suspect little.

    SOLD Front derailleur. Triple front (52/42/30), 8 speed

    1987 Cannondale SM500

    Nice buy at $100 total, frame looks pristine. I think of 1987 as the 24"/26" era but after checking the catalog I see that not all models were sold that way. I can see the drooping Cannondale decal. Did they manage to duplicate that on the other side? I have the same white Turbo that needs...

    R400

    I've had a Tiagra 9 FD break also, seems to be a common failure. Pretty sure that any 8/9 speed Shimano road triple FD will work. There's a good chance I have something here but it might be prone to the same failure. You might consider a Claris 8 speed triple FD.
