i would roll with it. £225 for the crankset alone isnt a completely awful price. inspect the frame thoroughly then go from there

The impact didn't even buckle the wheel
I've had two (my only two!) frame / fork braking crashes on the same front wheel, and it survived both totally fine. One a woman pulled out on me, on an old Trek Madone, where the fork was fine, and the HT/DT joint buckled entirely. The other I hit the back of a white van and snapped the steerer tube of the forks.
I'm still riding that frame 4 years later, which had some cosmetic damage to the cf of the headtube, but only because I know what the crash was like and that really, it was a freak accident that snapped the forks.

He's saying "No mate, I can refund you. The impact didn't even buckle the wheel. I bought it off someone from my club that just couldn't be arsed. I told him that cannondale may replace forks."
Ah. Mad bargain. Possibly fucked. Dunno.
