    WTB 1986 SR800

    I don't have a hard copy of the 1986 catalog but you can download it here: https://vintagecannondale.com/catalog/ Rustoleum coral looks pretty close...

    Cannondale Vintage F900 1997

    Swept back bars like Rick posted in the 2nd photo will get your hands farther back which will result in you riding in a more upright position. I would guess that there is a swept back bar out there that your shifters will mount on.

    Cannondale CAAD10?

    It does appear to be a CAAD10 but with the repaint it's going to be tough to pin down the year.

    Delta V to gravel bike.

    Did he drill out the rear dropout for the caliper? Used a later fork with caliper mount? I rode some 9% grade gravel today, 26" or 650B wheels would have been nice.

    1991 Cannondale SR 1000 + Mavic

    Very nice. I have the 1992 Mavic equipped R1000 here. Mine is original except for saddle, seat post, and handlebar. I'd love to have that Mavic post in the ebay listing even though my 1992 originally came with a Kingsberry. There is a piece of foam on seat stay that I neglected to remove...

    Vintage 1997 Canondale F900 parts requested

    Good for you. I am tempted to buy some of the rims because 26" rims seem to be getting scarce.

    ‘93 beast of the East

    I always thought the Girvin fork was an interesting design but I don't have any experience with them. I would think they have less stiction but there are a lot of pivot points to wear.

    Cannondale F1000 (Year/Edition?)

    Correct. The front derailleur is actually an 8 speed model. I am not sure but I would expect it to work with the 9 speed XT shifter.

    Cannondale F1000 (Year/Edition?)

    Probably would be easier to find a pair of Shimano V brake levers. I have plenty of inexpensive new Tektro levers, which work fine. Believe XT 9 speed was M750, M760, M765, and M770. Any would work but if you want to match them, check the numbers on your derailleurs (stamped in back side)...

    1996 M900 Geometry?

    I wasn't sure if Cannondale made those frames to take a suspension fork or not. The 1996 F200 and F400 had conventional suspension forks but they were CAAD2 frames. I don't have a P-Bone fork to measure. Check your head tube angle with the tires aired up and see how it compares to the 71...

    Cannondale F1000 (Year/Edition?)

    Guessing it's a 1998 though black isn't shown in the catalog on an F1000. Believe the F1000 only had the CAAD3 frame in 1997 and 1998. Check the two letter code stamped in the BB shell for the build date. I would just try to find the matching brake lever and XT shifters and ride it as is...

    2002 F800 Coda Crank Question

    Sheldon Brown lists most V1 Shimano triple cranks as needing 112-118.5 mm spindles. I would expect a 109.5 to be too narrow, though I don't know where to find specs for Coda. I have a few Coda triples but I think they are all square taper. Will check. I think it would be safest to go with...

    1996 M900 Geometry?

    Geometry is on page 51 of the 1996 catalog, download it here: https://vintagecannondale.com/catalog/ I would think that a fork with similar axle to crown length and travel would be fine if you are happy with the handling of the bike as it is now.

    1990 SM400

    I never thought about running a threaded fork threadless but I guess it would work as long as the stem is installed with some engagement on the unthreaded part of the steerer tube. Are you going to buy a threadless headset? You can drive the pins out of the cable guides and shake them out of...
