There we go, another Cannondale I couldn't resist. This one for the Mrs.
Been thinking for a bit whether to go new or used but then she said I wanna bike like yours, so that everyone is jealous (thanks).
Search began and in literally no time I found this bad boy.
Full original spec (saddle is a suspect tho) MTB w a lovely Siemens Mobile frame.
Size medium. Handmade in USA.
Got it with a headshock fault (not holding air) and a good discount.
50 eur later the headshock appears to be fixed (as per a local pro-Cannondale LBS).
Funny enough mechanic was asking me whether I would consider selling the bike to him.
Spec is Shimano XT/LX 3*9, Magura brakes, Mavic x819 wheels on Cannondale hubs running tubeless (yes, tubeless) Racing Ralphs.
Only thing done to the bike by me so far is a full thorough clean (not a rebuild as was serviced last year) and a tune up.
Plans are as follows:
1x11 SLX or XT conversion
SLX or XT brakes
New grips
New pedals (potentially dale spiders)
New seat as Mrs not to keen on this one.
So there we go. Four Cannondales and one Trek now. Lol.
