Hi all,

I know this is a tall ask, but if any one is selling a 1995, 1996 or 1997 Cannondale M800 Beast of the East 18" please do let me know.

I know there's a few earlier models on Ebay at the moment, but I'm only after the beast produced through those years above as i really prefer the wish bone style rear frame & P-bone fork set-up.

Also just to add to the tall ask, i need it in 18" only, for my tiny legs.

I'm happy to buy just a frame and fork & can be battered as hell, as long as no dents or cracks etc.

Ps can any of you tell me how different riding the M800 beast feels, compared to riding a normal height bottom bracket bike, would you notice the raised bottom bracket height mainly using it for toe paths etc?

Thanks to anyone that replies.
 
Hey @LeeDevelopment thanks so much for the link, yea i was following this one, even thought it was the older shape and to big for me i still bid, but got out bidded, some got an awesome deal for that price. The search continues, but thanks again for the help 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌
 
I have what I believe is a 1995 BotE frame and fork. Not wishbone though.

It's had a spray.paint job but really needs a fresh coat. No cracks or dinks.

Pretty sure those dropouts make it a '93 at the latest, I think they moved away from those cantilevered chain/seat stays in '94 for something a bit more conventional looking

That's interesting, it was sold to me as a 95, I'm no expert on Cannondale's so happy to have the date corrected.
 
Also @Tsundere or any of you guys that know Cannondales, could you please tell me if the M800 BotE feels radically different to ride with the higher BB say compared to the M900 standard frame shape or any other cannondale or other brand bike with normal height BB? Thanks to anyone that replies

Hi @Tsundere, thanks for sending this through. What a cool bike. Yes sadly i have kind of set my heart on the 1995 on wards frame shape. But how much are you after for yours? As i'm really looking for a beaten up bike due to budgets etc.

It was a blast to ride, but was stripped a while back. I'd let frame and forks go for £80 plus shipping.

I'm no expert on Cannondale's, but there are people on here who might be able to help. I'd consider posting in here to catch their attention.
