Showcase
The M700 has gone through a series of developments.
I was gifted the frame, the saddle and the Coda brakes.
In the meantime, the second fork has been installed, as the steerer tube of the first one was too long.
I converted the rear Shimano LX hub to a larger freehub so thatit now accomodates a 9 speed cassette.
The 3x9 thumbshifters are from Sunrace, the purple rims are from Shogun ( Shogun Zero, 390gr!, made in Australia).
The purple bar also comes from Shogun ( Shogun Dynax)
The current...
This is one of my latest projects.
The project was kind of forced on me, because one of my spanish Instagram buddies just send me this 3.0 frame out of the blue.
So I had to make something out of it.
First, of course, I needed to get a Pepperoni fork!
Then i polished the frame as best I could.
It shows a lot of signs of a hard life!
I also gave a fresh Cannondale decal.
According to the serial number, the frame was welded in March 1993.
That usually means it would have been in stores in...
This is the current version of my Super V
It has received another wheelset and a Coda 502M crankset
I've bee riding this Super V1000 for quite some time.
Currently it's assembled from components of three different donor bikes.
Both the rear swingarm and the fork featured IS mounts for disc brakes, which allowed me to convert the bike to full disc brake setup.
On the main frame I modified the shock mount by shortening it and fitted a longer Fox rear shock with 165mm eye-to-eye length.
Braking power is provided by a Magura MT5, which offers a very strong brake power
This bike is bone stock and in mint condition. I found it in Indianapolis 8 years ago.
A real survivor, this bike still has the original tires and they are somehow still in decent shape. With the exception of the missing toe clips and straps, this bike is just how it left the factory 42 years ago.
Very nice 19” touring bike. This one is a little odd, the frame sticker says ST500 but the components and frame color match the catalog specs for an ST400. I assume that they just used the wrong sticker at the factory.
This is a 19” ST400 that I rebuilt several years ago for my mother to ride. All new cables/housing, saddle, Kool Stop brake pads, Panaracer Pasela tires, Nitto B132 bars and new bar tape. She has really put the miles on this bike over the last few years.
Straight from the glory days of late-90s MTB
Here’s my 1998 Cannondale Volvo Team Replica F3000 SL—still looking race-ready after all these years. A true collector’s piece that reminds me why the Volvo Cannondale era was pure magic.
I picked up the bike with all original components and then rebuilt it with 3 x 7 gearing and 700c wheels. It is one of the nicest riding bikes that I own. I have ridden it on a number of multi-day events.
Well..not much to say here. I was bored and needed a "cause i can" project.
The result is a rather extreme super hooligan 20 inch wheels conversion with 200mm travel in the front, and around 190mm in the back thanks to a fox air shock with 220mm overall lenght.
As seen on the pictures the rear swing arm is open to a point where the rear deraileur lower pulley allmost can touch the floor in the biggest rear cassette sprocket.
Not for a daily usage for sure, but a hell lot of fun and a great...
My restored 1987 SR500. Purchased new in 1987 in State College, PA. It languished in my basement for 30 years until 2023 when I decided to bring it back to life.
