WTD: Cannondale gemini or am frame

[jimmylad]

Hi all.

After a cannondale gemini frame if any one has one sat around. I'd like to rebuild a bike I had in 2005 so the condition of the frame is not the most important, but please, no cracked frames.
Failing that, would be interested in a schwinn 6 banger, a rsp bouncy bike from 2000 or a ellsworth dare (either the new(ish) crazy tubing shape or the older normal tubing).

Regardless, size must either be a small or medium.
Price: dependant on what you have.
Could possible swap (along with money if needed) for a cove sanchez frame.

Any info be great thanks

Cheers for the link.
Afraid I already have a 'dale xc bike, however it does look a very tidy ride that one.

Safe trails

Yeah no prob, I didnt know they class the frame as XC I thought they were XC/AM :?


Good luck

I'd imagine that it would easyly do 'am' and 'xc' rather happily. If I didn't already have one very similar I would have had it.

did you ever find one?

 

[jimmylad]

No, still with out a gemini. Would be interested in hearing about one if you have one, however having just picked up my canon 100-400 lens from being refurbished am not promising how far the money can stretch this month, but please do tell...

Well, not a Gemini, but I do have an Ellsworth Dare in the loft I was thinking about selling.... i's a bit battered and used, but still solid and got some life in it yet...

 

[jimmylad]

Amedias you bugger hahahaha. I am very interested in this!!! Always wanted one of these.
Which model is it? The original tubed version or the hydroformed one? If its a small I'm claiming first dips on this if thats ok. Medium would probably be fine as well.
I look forward to hearing from you, however please bear in mind my out goings this month have been ridicouls, but for a dare i'd see what I can do.

Thanks

It's the 1st generation of the extruded ones, ill drop you a PM with some pics and more info either tonight or over the weekend as I'm at work at the mo.

I actually have 2, retired the 1st one when it started getting abit tired and replaced with number 2, but not riding it as much these days so thinking I don't need to keep the original one as a spare...

if you look through my post history you'll probably find some pics of them both...
