    Killer V 700 (1998)

    I would say that an ebay buy-it-now listing would be the equivalent USA option. You can set your price with or without the make offer option. Craigslist and Facebook marketplace would be other options.

    1990 SM400

    I'm not sure what the first year for Viper Red was but there was Red Shred on the 1990 SM800, Team Red on the SM400, and Inferno red on the SR600 and SR800. I always thought the yellow decals on the later red bikes looked better than the black or white of the earlier ones.

    People might measure them as 63 cm but Lemond's largest size was 61 cm, at least from 1997 until 2008. That's all the catalogs I have here and vintageTrek site seems to be down. Comparing a 61 cm Lemond 853 frame to a 63 cm Serotta, the Lemond actually has a longer top tube - 60.5 cm vs. the...

    Wanted Plan To Make Downtube Shifter Boss / cable stop mounts

    Those are there to help prevent the bosses from rotating. They measure about 3 mm in diameter and are located in the center of the concave, approximately 8.75 mm on center from the center of the boss. Height doesn't matter much but it is about 2.5 mm on the original parts. Looking at your...

    Wanted Suntour XC Pro parts

    I do have NOS 7 speed cassettes in 12-28, 12-30, and 13-30. The cassettes with 30T cogs are black, the 12-28 is silver Accushift Plus II. Yes but I can't remember what the "Multimount" shifters are other than thumbshifters. SunTour had shifters that mounted directly to the bar and that were...

    Wanted Suntour XC Pro parts

    I'd forgotten that the Omega was SunTour. Does the wheel have a freewheel hub? Is the frame 130 or 135 mm spaced?

    Wanted Suntour XC Pro parts

    I know that I have NOS SunTour 36 hole cassette hubs but they are not XC Pro. Probably 130 mm but I would have to check. 1991 was about the year that SunTour introduced the Microdrive compact crank, but they also made standard (28-38-48, etc) cranks at the same time. The 1991 catalog shows...

    Wanted Suntour XC Pro parts

    I probably have a NOS cassette. 7 or 8 speed? Might have hubs but they won't be NOS. What front derailleur - clamp size, standard or Microdrive? Guessing 32 clamp and bottom pull if for a Cannondale.

    chain stay protector

    I have a 1997 CAAD2 frame here in the stand. It has a plain black chainstay protector, essentially a black version of the helicopter tape. I don't know if it's original to the frame or not, but looking at the yellow bikes in the 1997 catalog it doesn't appear that they came with anything on...

    chain stay protector

    Whether you need it or not depends on how rough your roads are and the gear combinations that you spend a lot of time in. Certainly wouldn't hurt to protect the stay though. We always used 3M helicopter tape to protect the front edges of wings on the race cars. It will yellow over time but...

    Where to get a Decal kit

    PM Brian if he doesn't chime in. Velocals decals are vinyl I think but thin enough to be clear coated. They probably have reasonably close down tube, head tube, fork, and possibly made in USA decals. https://velocals.com/cannondale-build-a-set/?sort=featured&page=1

    Cannondale R500 CAAD 5 [2004]

    Looks great. Current Sora is so much nicer than it used to be.

    Where to get a Decal kit

    Perhaps Brian will chime in. Have you looked around at velocals? They probably won't have a model decal but might have the same style of down tube decals, and might have a color that is close.

    Wanted WTB: Cannondale A192 Chainstay Cable Stop

    I'd be interested in the shifter bosses if they list them. I don't see them yet. Thanks.

    Wanted WTB: Cannondale A192 Chainstay Cable Stop

    They didn't give me a very good deal on a quantity of them unfortunately. Where are you located? I could still order a pair and drill and tap them for you if the shipping makes sense.

    Wanted WTB: Cannondale A192 Chainstay Cable Stop

    I have contacted the ebay seller (that I posted in the other thread) about buying a quantity of the stops. I can drill and tap them.

    A192 CHAINSTAY

    Look around for a bike shop that was selling Cannondales in the 1990s. Dealers had frame parts kits that would have had the stops. Another option would be to look for a trashed donor frame - bike co-op, craigslist, swap meet, flea market, etc. This one should work if you drilled and tapped...

    Siemens caad 5

    Looks like your bike is a 2005 Euro spec F1000 SL. I tried to post links but they do not work. Go to our catalog page, cllick on 2005 EU catalog, then click mountain bikes, XC Racing, and F1000 SL. There is a small photo showing the Siemens top tube paint. It's just like your bike.
