"A bit more info would help. What does "shot" mean? Are your components broken? What type of riding do you want to do? How old is the bike? What color is it (this is most important for some of our members)?"

The bike hasn't left the garage in 6 years and I tore it down to the frame yesterday. After looking over all of the parts I took off, they are in bad shape, rust, really old grease, pretty much they need to be replaced. "What type of riding do you want to do?"- I am a road biker, but my friends enjoy mountain biking so I'll just be occasionally ridding the local trails, nothing to intense. The bike is a 1998 or 1999, I'm not sure though since canondales archives only go back to 2000. It is olive colored.
