I had a LL Bean bike with a steel frame. Not a Cannondale make. Many non-bike companies get bikes based solely on price. So many beer, wine, soda and bottled bikes that are mostly junk. A decent quality promotional or branded bike is the exception. It's unlikely LL Been spec'd certain parts...

The 97 catalog specs reads Rock Shox Quadra 5 black fork. I can't make out the decal well enough to tell what the fork is but is sure doesn't look like a Rock Shox. I see there are some spacers under the frame, perhaps to change head angle or overall height or they just didn't know how to...

Quite exotic. I went to England about 15 years ago and the Cannondale's for sale at Herods were about 3x the USA price, along with all the other bikes in London. But still... Too big for me.

I sold this bike this winter. The buyer had it powder coated in a 2 tone green metal fade. Stopped by to day to show it off. Looks very nice in person. New wheels. STI levers.

fork.

XL frame decal. So here is the 2009 catalog geometry chart. With a sloping top tube I suppose you measure the standover mid-top tube. The bike is in storage for the time being. I'll try to get some closeups of the fork and measure it next time. Broken spoke in the rear wheel and the rim is...

hack rebuild to make this urban hybrid in to a gravel bike. Serials on the bb shell is ICC09G0296 & G7739M1 . I see there are many versions of the Quick. any help on the year and exact model please. The woman who rode up on it wasn't tall enough and there were no working brakes. 45 mm...

For the short term, mountain bike bar ends can be installed on mountain bike bar ends. There are a variety of shapes from straight to curved. Most are the same size as handlebars so they can be 'stacked' to get you more upright. The possible positions are nearly endless. The main down side is...

yes, Sun Tour XCD derailleur.

Okay, 1 year old post. My local bike coop has a 66cm Cannondale road bike. Located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

1989 SM800 based on the components. There is no model number on them. The bikes look to be moslty stock. One top tube clip missing, a big scratch right there from the brake lever getting dragged across. Both need a good cleaning and some touch up on the paint. The sludge on the bb area is...

The 2 bikes are nearly identical but have different serial number schemes. 20020989070 20 inch frame 02/09/1989 (February 9 1989) #070 that day 518108800313 5 = 135mm rear spacing 18 inch frame 1088 production ( October 1988) number 0313 How secure is a lock when the number tag is still...

Just picked this pair of Cannondales up tonight. I'll get the serial numbers tomorrow during daylight hours. "his and hers" set. Early mountain bikes in black. Been sitting for decades.

USA made Cannondales are aluminum. That's what made them famous. Not the first company to use aluminum but the first to go big. They used modern large scale manufacturing techniques like laser mitering. Frames were welded, then bolted to jigs for heat treatment to relieve the stresses in the...

Accident damage. Have the frame checked for alignment before replacing parts. Aluminum isn't something you can straighten out. A bent aluminum frame would total the bike. Damage to a head shock fork is a total as well. Next look up the catalog for that model year to get the oem specs. None...

updates After the around the block test ride where things seemed okay, I relocated the bike from my van (hot interior) to the cool basement. The next day I headed out for a long ride but the crank was klunking so I only got to the corner and returned. After a long battle, I got the crank out...

Fresh donation at the local bike coop. 1991 Cannondale SM400. Black with faded hot pink decals. More pink than my camera recorded. In fair condition. We started working on it today. Replaced the rusty bars and way too long stem. Replaced the faded out Diacompe XCM brake levers with some...

I took it for a short spin around the block with 2 hills to check for creaking. None noticed with running shoes on. But the shifters got stuck in the big ring - big cog gear. So a cleaning and lube and they work like new again. Rerouted the cables so they don't rub on the side of the head...
