Cannondale Delta V project. Update 19/01/09***

mazdaman1980 · Jan 8, 2009

I aquired this recently from the very kind Nobby the Sheep and had wanted one for a long time. It needs a brush over with some coarse and then fine wire brush and then a clean over with some brasso or similar of which i have already started but the forks are a different matter. They need rebuilding internally which GA Cyles in Southampton are going to do for me so its all go with this next project.

I will be posting pics of the build as i aquire the parts etc but have some great ideas. I cant wait to get her finished!

Nice project

, I hope the fork works still good. This is my DeltaV, also from England

Thats a lovely bike there. I could never work out the difference between Killer V and Delta V. I know my frame weighs 3.5lbs so could it be weight?

The fork needs a re-build but thats ok.

Delta V was Headshok and Killer V had a standard 1 1/8" headtube

Lots of Cannondale info here http://www.vintagecannondale.com/

So mine is a delta then, but i swear the killer v 900 came with optional headshock!

Yes, thats right. There are Killer with Headshok and also without.

This is a Headshok-Killer:
