Hey I don't mind those.

I know a lot of people hate Cannondales though - philistines one and all.

What year is that? Mid to late 90s at a guess?

doug,

i don't mind them either.
as with all other frame designs, it's got it's place in mtb history.
nice to see something a bit different being posted.
let me know when you split and sell.
regards,

gareth

ive ridden a lot of cannondales and must say i like them... very in your face, but very light, stupidly stiff and generally pretty strong, with thier single pivot suspension design working very well...

Raven was inteesting... alu skelington with the carbon shell... always made me think of a Kirk with clothes on! :)

but the guy that designed the graphics on that... well....!!! :?
