    1988 Team Crest SR500 Cannondale

    Interesting that the price has gone up. Anticipation of spring?

    So a 20" frame made on the 4th of August 1986.

    Thanks for the list. There are more touring models than I remembered. I don't recall ever seeing a T/ST600 or T800. The registry is an interesting idea but the number of submissions we would get would hardly scratch the surface of Cannondale's production. We have the gallery for Cannondales...

    Unknown 1998 CAAD2, please help identify.

    It's a 1999 but the model may not be something that we can determine. The closest bike I found in the USA catalogs was the 2000 F700. It had a front disc brake and rear V brake, but it was a CAAD3 frame. Your bike is a 1999 because of the head tube decal style, and 1999 was the first year for...

    Cannondale History

    What size do you need? I have a couple of Silk Road framesets in the basement. No idea what shipping would cost. I have two Silk Roads built up. Here's the first one I purchased, a 1996 SR500. It's built for all surface use, with wide range gearing and 27 mm cyclocross knobby tires.

    Where did you ride your Cannondale today?

    The 60-70 degree temps we had here in the past few weeks have ruined me for riding now that it's back to normal - highs in the 40s mainly.

    Another very old ST500. 1983 or 1984

    Looks nice. Tempting to see if my brother could pick it up for me next time he's down that way for work - but do I really need a fourth 80s ST 00?

    1987 SR400 Team Comp

    You should look for a pink 1987 SR600 (my first Cannondale road bike) or SM800. I have a nice pink 58 cm SR600 frameset here, been slowly acquiring the Shimano 600 bits to build it back to original spec.

    If it's a 1986 model, the serial number could be on the underside of chain or seat stay. https://vintagecannondale.com/info/serial_numbers/

    Where did you ride your Cannondale today?

    I will have the look for the MKS beartraps. The SunTours bring more money than I want to spend. I have lots of SPD pedals but seldom want to take the time to change shoes.

    Hello from ohio

    I lived in NW suburbs of Columbus in the mid 1980s. Only got to Cleveland for one weekend a year for the CART races. I really like southern OH for the hills and woods. Thinking that the winters would be much milder as well.

    Dia-Compe XCT brake pad part number?

    I'm no expert on the various models. They had numbered models as well, in the 1980s/1990s Cannondale used 984s and 986s on MTBs and touring bikes. You might look through the listings here and see what models had similar pads...

    I'd forgotten about the SunTour Command shifters on that ST1000. I used to look for them on eBay but never landed a pair. Had a similar pair of 6 speed Shimano shifters on a GT that was stolen. I haven't seen many ST/T1000s or above. There was a T2000 in 2003 but most years T1000 was the...

    Looks like a 1993. Did you add the RaceFace crank? Are those SunTour pedals or perhaps copies?

    1990's Cannondale tandem

    I think that's actually a 1993 RT3000. I'm only seeing Ritchey cranksets on the 1993 and 1994 tandems. 1995-1999 were Sugino. Quite a few newer parts on it - shifters, rear derailleur, brakes, front rim, perhaps more.

    Suntour shifter assembly

    I don't think function will suffer without the rubber part. I think it's just there to fill a small gap between the lever and the backing plate/lever stop.

    SUPER V carbon

    Thanks. I thought it might be an XTR part.

    1988 Black Lightning

    I thought I might have a black Sprint front derailleur but so far I haven't found it, only a silver one.

    Where did you ride your Cannondale today?

    A new one must have been very expensive. SunTour did make both 6 and 7 speed indexed bar end shifters. Perhaps when you have more time on the bike your hand will fall to the right spot without looking down.

    SUPER V carbon

    I had never seen the carbon Shimano brake arch before. Was is specific to a parts group or sold separately as an add on?
