3 x 7 Front derailleur is friction. Fork suspension.
Fully gone over.
Mechanic notes:
I have been unsuccessful in locating a adjuster cap for the headshot suspension. I have checked both Google and eBay and without any luck. The cap would cover the aluminum nut at the top of the fork. The aluminum nut has a yellow yellow Schrader valve cap. The nut turns easily by hand to adjust the shock function. Turn it fully clockwise until it stops and the shock will be firm. A half turn counterclockwise and the shock is active. It turns so easily that the cap is for all intents and purposes, cosmetic.
I did a partial rebuild on the shocks. I did not want to get into the 4 dozen needle bearings and the associated alignment of said bearings. At any rate. The shock is now holding its air pressure. And I got the lockout working ( better ). There is a clunking at the full extension of the shock that I have seen in other cannondale head shocks. I don’t know if this is normal or not.
