    CAAD10?

    I couldn't see that paint in any of the catalogs in the CAAD10 year range. 2011-2013 graphics had CAAD10 decals on the seat tube, later years did not have that decal. Is it 10 speed? 11 speed was introduced on the 2014 models. I doubt it's a repaint but I guess it's possible. We see lots of...

    Hello to you!

    Looks like a very nice Super V. Wish I could find one that nice near me.

    Killer Delta F?

    Yes, some years the smallest size was a KV frame.

    Cannondale Color Examples / Pipe Patterns

    I saw some of these years ago on ebay but they were too pricey for me to consider buying.

    Cannondale Team Crest white.

    You might start with a bit where it won't show, such as inside the dropout. Let it dry and see how it matches. You might be able to then add a bit of another color to get a closer match.

    Delta T 2000!

    Looks to be a 1993 Delta V 2000. Worth a bit of driving just to have a look at the Austin Healey.

    Seen on the rear window of a pickup yesterday: Dirty Hands, Clean Money.

    New to the brand!

    Welcome. I can't tell much about the bike from the angle but looks to be mid to late 1990s.

    Hello Americans!

    Welcome. Don't overlook the SR600. It had the same frame and fork as the higher end models and the 600EX stuff is really pretty nice.

    1990 ST600 fork questions.

    Just by the catalog pictures, it appears that 1992 was the first year for the unicrown fork. But it's not unusual to see Cannondales that differ from catalog spec. I'd guess Tange was making the unicrown forks in 1990 and they may have been substituted because of a supply issue with the lugged...

    2006 CAAD7??

    It might have been a replacement frame or sold as a frameset rather than a complete bike. Assuming the frame is all aluminum (Is it?), I'm guessing that it's a CAAD8. See the dropout detail photo of the CAAD8 on the 2006 R800 page. I'm pretty sure that dropout is specific to the CAAD8. The...

    Newbie!

    Salt can really accelerate aluminum corrosion. A friend had an aluminum Specialized with severe corrosion under the front derailleur clamp. I hope your frame isn't too badly corroded.

    Cannondale Synapse owner near Boston, MA

    Welcome. Nice looking Synapse. I'd like to try one at some point. I've yet to own a carbon Cannondale.

    To whom it may concern

    Interesting bike. Perhaps only sold in Europe with the Nexave parts. I don't know if Cannondale printed a separate catalog for Europe at the time. I've never seen an H/SH frame before that didn't have cantilever posts.

    To whom it may concern

    Surely M series (500, 700, 900) but it would be hard to pin a model number on it with the non catalog color and build. Could have been built up from a frameset. We often see frames lacking model numbers in colors that don't appear in the catalogs. I don't think it had anything to do with...
