i had that exact same bike in a 54 cm, i sold it to a guy in dallas back in october of '06. the only difference was that i upgraded to ksyrium sl's and a new seat post and bars. great bike you will love it. i also had the grey/raw r5000 from that same year before the blue one, spec'd just like it came from the factory. you just can't beat the level of bike you get for the money on that model, its great!!! enjoy your c'dale!!!!

Quickly find another bike shop. Preferably one that offers Cannondales so you won't get booted

I bought a very similar Cannondale for the same price except it's a Record Chorus mix. I think we both got good deals.
