I’ve been using my R200 as an workout bike. It’s over 25 years old. Now I’ve decided to restore it to a street worthy Road bike. What path would you experts take? I want to keep it under $1000.
I want to ditch the original Dia Compe brakes set, triple crankset, 7 speed cassette, all derailleurs, cheap saddle.The wheel set is original Rigida. It might be worth saving? Or not?
The 25” frame is a Cannondale CAD2, in perfect shape, no dents but needs a cleaning. I’m thinking maybe SRAM 11 speed components if I can keep the price below $1K. Any advice. I’m Very tall, almost 6’5”. These tall frames are hard to come by so I want to make most of it.
