Hey everyone. I've been looking to upgrade to my first real road bike. My budget is small and will be only using it to commute, so I've been looking around CL for used and even older bikes and came across this Cannondale, at least that's what it says. I believe it is older but I can't quite identify from looking through the older catalogues from the mid-late 80's. I'm an amateur by all means so forgive my ignorance, but is this thing authentic?

here is a link to the craigslist page for a few more pictures although I don't know how much more a help they will be.
