Another great Ebay find. Hardly ever rode and sat in a garage for about 15 years until I brought it in 2012.
I brought a Killer V 900 new many years ago just like this one and rode it 37.5 miles to work everyday and 37.5 miles home every night for about three years. On the weekends I would just do about 50 miles round trip and take one day off. Spending that amount of time in the saddle it wasn't long before I started racing. So I took off the front fork and put on an after market Manituo, missed spelled but all you old heads know what I mean. I started XC at first and then fell in love with the...
Bought as frame and fork off of Ebay. Once I got the bike I did some research as I thought the frame was a 97. When I looked up the numbers off the frame, I found it to be a 95. Looking online here I couldn't find a 95 F2000 model. I thought maybe someone did a restoration and maybe re-stickered the bike. I made a phone call to Cannondale to find out some info on it. The wonderful Lady that answered the phone did some searching and came up with nothing as well. She asked for pictures of the...
Finally found one in near pristine condition - with the original Blue Brahma bar ends, blue Dia Compe brakes and so I decked it out in custom blue parts, cannondale blanck and blue seat, cannondale seat post etc.
The bike was bought from ebay as a bit of a mess... The bike was stripped and the frame shot blasted and powder coated in the closest red I could match to Cannondale red. Decals were bought of the ebay and are not great, there is a guy that now does better ones so I may swap these out.
The build currently features XT thumbies with XT short cage mech running 8 speed, American Classic hubs on Mavic 217 SUP rims, FSA Ti b/b with Cook Bros crank and Pace chainrings, Club Roost riser bar, NOS...

I bought this Vintage Cannondale in Austria this year 2014, no use from 10 years ago...
I don't know the model, I think a M700 or M800 from earlies 90s...
someone have an idea?.
It's really beautiful and riding it's like new.
All components I think are original, Deore LX/XT, CODA and RITCHEY but still I didn't find another with this configuration and colours... maybe the previous owner made some changes...
Thanks!!!.
I think that this frame has been resprayed at some time as some of the decals don't match(one says disc specific and the mounts don't exist on the frame)
It has XT on the front, X0 on the rear, Avid v-brakes, Mavic rims on XT hubs, Ringlé seat post, etc
I have just picked this frame up almost for free and don't know much about it.
The s/n tells it's a 1990 18\" frame and that's it.
Thinking of building a retro bike
