I live In Moreno Valley,pretty close to UCR, I'll try and get a pic soon of the crack, It's pretty small but my buddy said I should have it checked out so I dont know.

I got better pictures of the cannondale, it has braze-on gear shifters and vertical drops =(, just something id rather not deal with , I had already chopped the ones off the nishiki, awell it looks like im going to buy a set of Weinmanns from Bicyclewheels.com and call it a day , and im probably going to paint the nishiki primer black until I find a descent frame.
