1998 CAAD2

I searched for a while for a Cannondale frame reasonably enough priced and 100% dent free for a project that I have wanted to do since being inspired by a mates SuperSix. As usual, this site came up trumps.

I bought the frame & forks from GT_Steve, who bought it from Saltyman, who bought it from Sithlord. So it's been around the block a few times but that doesn't bother me - she's still tidy and a perfect base for some new clothes and a bit of make up.

The thing is, I don't want to call it a Cannondale because it's days of being a Cannondale are numbered....so let's just stick to CAAD2 for now....


A quick pic at Sithlord's palace: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . and then safe and warm at my place with new wheels and a Pace bar:




The make over has begun, I wasn't sure about the tyres but I plumped for a NOS set and I think they work really well. I was always sure about the chainset:



Personally, I think when she's done she's going to be a peach

Love to hear your comments chaps

Looks nice and clean in White. I've been getting Cannondale urges recently. Looking forward to see how the biek turns out in the end

perfect tool for the job type bike

Oh that looks ace already!

As Earlofbarnet says it looks really clean keeping it black and white but liking the Wildgrippers to add a bit of contrasting colour... Works really well in my eyes

I'm very biased, but I think it looks fantastic. Below is a pic of my single speed M600 before I sold it. (Seeing yours makes me wish I never sold mine :cry: )

Nice one

Finished for the time being, and ready for the Anglian regional ride tomorrow

Test rides pre regional meet = zero :?
