Wife is insisting I thin the herd so here is my Cannondale SM800 Beast of the East.Frame was dent and crack free and was originally in 1991 colours.I had it powder coated in Vermilion and finished off with some of Gils decals.Size is 20" large.
Build is not catalogue,but works well.Wheels are 1995 Nukeproof hubs laced to Mavic 237 wheels,tyres are modern Specialized Fastrak.Brakes are a mixture of M739 XT levers and modern 2013 V brakes.Saddle,seat post and stem are modern,but I will include the original stem.Gears are XT M739 rear and XT M737 Front.Shifters are XT 7/8 speed thumb shifters in good working order.
Wheels have done less than 500 miles from new (off my dad's proflex),chain and modern chainset were new,as was the NIB 13-30 cassette.
New UN55/56 bottom bracket and new Ritchet Logic headset.
Been out on it three times since building,just setting up gears and choosing tyres,but has to go.
It's on Ebay at the moment,but looking for £240 or offers on a paypal gift from here
