Hi all, I'm once again looking for a needle in a haystack (or actually two), and am therefore turning to the community with hope: 1990 3.0 frame in size 20" Pepperoni fork with 1" steerer (long enough for a 20" frame or longer) Paint scheme and condition are completely irrelevant, but the...

This is the build-story of one of the most iconic MTBs of the 90s. The 1993 Cannondale SV 3000 - a bike which many loved, and even more hated. The bike has a fascinating story behind it, in terms of origins, technology, design, advertisement and the 10-year-long production run it initiated - I...

Looking for this box swing arm - if anybody got one to sell and could weight it on the kitchen scale (large weight discrepancies in this part), I'd highly appreciate a PM :)

Just spotted: In season 2 of Friends, there is a blue Cannondale Super V in Joeys flat :)

A shy 1995 Cannondale M2000 which reached its final iteration after a long restoration and customisation journey: - Optimised for fast gravel and road (who needs a modern ugly Gravel bike?) - 7,93 kg light - Cassette is 11-28 (reduced to 6 cogs), crank is 30/48 - Ultrafast Rene Herse Rat Trap...

My M2000 also reached the final iteration of its long customisation journey: - Optimised for fast gravel and road - 7,93 kg light - Cassette is 11-28 (reduced to 6 cogs), crank is 30/48 - Ultrafast Rene Herse Rat Trap Pass tires The ultimate joy to ride :)

For me, it's the needle in the haystack: the 1990 Cannondale SM Omega:

Thank you! I also found this article on the topic of high pivot designs, interesting how fashion "returns" :)

Beautiful refurbishment and bike :) And again we seem to mirror our tastes in bikes @Vesatoro :) You mentioned you notice slack in the rear swingarm on bigger bumps on the old high-pivor swingarms. Could you explain what you mean, especially compared to the low-pivot swingarms from 1996 onwards?

Hello everyone, For a retro bike (Cannondale Super V), I am looking for a shock (rear shock) with the following specifications: Eye-to-eye installation length: 135-140 mm Bushing width: 22 mm Air/Oil spring (as light as possible) Ideally with lockout or Pro Pedal. Unfortunately, despite the...

What a great, value adding post - thank you!

Snapshots during the maiden voyage:

The status so far: The bike still lacks the caps for the bottom bracket bolts and the hite-rite device, which will be added after the test rides I am planning to perform over the next week(s). Overall, a beautiful bike, and the paint job with the sparkling metallic is actually gorgeous. It...

It's time for the build. The goal was a original spec bike with some added colour. So I felt I needed to incorporate these outrageously colourful accessories: Ready for the assembly :) More later :)
