Cannondale BB total jokes!!
I think I might have cracked the enigma!

A BB from Hambrini?

damn virus, migh have to try and sell a couple of projects. first up this if any interest ?

Is it a 54 or a 56...?

56
it can come with new ultegra BB, kcnc clamp for front derailleur, campag headset, original seatpost

Ta, too big. Probably for the best.

Still WIP but couldn't resist.

My recent pick up.

I don't know a lot about the cad3, other than how responsive and quick it is.

Can anyone shed any light on the year this was released, or any general history about it.

Thats lovely!

(I will never understand the decals on those forks though)

Cheers! I got the frameset last year on ebay for just over £100!! It did come with a very stubborn/rounded off old Ultegra front brake and has got the dreaded galvanic corrosion under the clear coat (I kind of dig it..) + So I got the frame checked out and its structurally fine and rides super well :)

Feeling silly running it with integrated carbon bars and a modern groupset but maybe after a few small upgrades it will be HHSRB worthy

Re Forks: IKR? The Slice SI is the best one?

The Slice SI is the best one?

There’s a whole load of different forks but generally the full carbon Time Slice Si is thought of highly.

I have one spare, came from a IIRC 58cm R5000 Caad7, 45mm Rake.

I assume the build has already been posted here.

Nice!

My 1998 CAAD2 R300 winter/commuter. Bit of a mix and match of 105 and Tiagra on a set of solid Aksiums, it's been bombproof for years and I love it! On the look out for a newer frame for another build as one CAAD just isn't enough…

This is good. Looks perfect to me. Makes me happy as I bought one of these about 18 months ago and shamefully still haven't done anything with it. Paid double what you did but whatever.

Didn't have a clue about the galvanic corrosion but mine has got it pretty bad. Read mixed things.

Was planning on just moving everything over from my current bike - but ended up giving it to my girlfriend so now need full groupset and wheels..

tl;dr - nice biek.

have a very nice caad7 in black gloss and orange but its 56

Second try:

Did the model numbers R4000, R 1000, R500 have different frames (quality/weight/whatever) or was the numbering just used to reflect the different quality components like groupset, wheels etc?

Thanks so much!

Impressive - yours?

pretty sure frames are the same components were different

It looks great but from experience a 56 is just too big sadly. Did you never get to build it up?

Did the model numbers R4000, R 1000, R500 have different frames

-Fork might be different

• later models BB might be BSA rather than BB30
  
  

Hello. I see a (mid-90s?) R700 for sale in my hometown but...
[1] no wheels
[2] steep seat stay angle
...has me wondering.
Will this be for 650c only?
Thanks for any enlightenment : )

(edited for weird formatting)

No, just the fork!
Usually, lower end frames had older CAAD frames, different forks and components aside. Say, in 2001 you could have gotten a caad3 r500, caad4 r1000, caad5 r2000 and a caad6 r5000.

Many thanks, very helpful!

For me it was important to know that within one CAAD generation the different model numbers do not mean different frame (quality/attributes)

Mannn, I want that bike!
