Hello all,
A fairly recent lurker deciding to do the decent thing and write, spurred on by curiosity about this M800. I usually ride an Orbea road bike but am dabbling with getting an older used MTB - I have a 1998 Klein Pulse Race possibly lined up ($320 - I'm a Brit in the US), or there's this Cannondale ($200, before negotiation ). Thing is, I cannot find any info on it - it looks old school (what's with the big gap between top tube and the down tube on the headset?!?!) and it claims to be a M800, but beyond that I know nothing. It's cheaper than the Klein, so its worth exploring.
Can anyone help?

P.S - what a great website! I came across it trying to research other older MTBs I was looking at and it the most nostalgic experience - I remember in the early to mid-90s getting tingly feelings in my nether regions at my mate's Kona Kilauea (or Killer Whale as we called it for some reason). Anyway...
