I'm not familiar with that Cannondale, but I have three 90's C'dales and I really like the brand. To me its worth the investment if you're going to ride it. I can answer one of your technical questions. No problem upgrading to 7 speed. You might have to redish the wheel, but the frame can handle it. Eight speed will require more changes and you would be shoving a 130mm axle into a frame with a 126mm spread between the dropouts. Because I've chosen to do this on one of my bikes doesn't mean you will be comfortable doing that.
