My husband bought me a Cannondale MTB today at the pawn shop. I love it, but can't figure out it's year or model.

any help would be awesome.

I don't have pictures yet, but can give you the basic info.

It's glossy black, but if you look close the paint is glittery, almost. It says Cannondale in gold on the top tube and Made in usa and 3.3 in gold.

it has suntour x-press shifters, suntour xcm front and rear derailleurs. 21 speeds. dia comp xct brakes. Alesa rims.
Serial number is 02009890090
Tried looking on Bikepedia but couldnt figure it out.

thanks in advance!

Front shock or rigid?

Still stumpped. It looks like the exact same paint job as the 88 Black Lightning road bike.

Your husband is a good man! Glad to hear that you ride the dusty trails with him.

He is a very good man :-) he also got me a Trek 1100.

I think I figured out the Cannondale. I think it's a sm400 from 1990. :-)
