I just picked up this fine old bike this afternoon. It is a 1989 Cannondale SM2000 with a full Shimano Deore XT /XT II group: pedals, hubs, thumbshifters, brakes, brake pads, headset, short cage rear Derailleur, front derailleur, cranks, etc.). 18-inch Cannondale 3.0 frame with 28.5-inch standover height. Tange Prestige Unicrown fork, Araya rims, Salsa stem, Cannondale alloy bars, Nitto alloy post and Selle Italia Turbo seat.

It is in pretty good shape for a 21 year old mountain bike. Not perfect, but neither am I. The wheels are straight, it seems to run fine and it is nine pounds lighter than my current bike, so I am a happy camper. It also fits me a lot better than my current bike. I will spend some time tomorrow doing some clean-up on the bike and mounting a rear rack for the commute, then take it for a shakedown ride.

WOOHOO!
