Not sure what model and year my Cannondale is.
I bought this bike a couple weeks ago and it cleaned up nicely. The previous owner doesn't know anything about bikes and it was just hanging in his garage. It has aftermarket aero bars and seat. From what I've found online I think it is a SR700 or 800 from the late 80s or early 90s. It has a 7 speed rear cassette. The breaks are 105s and the crank is biopace. The derailleurs are not labeled as they normally would. They are labeled as Sante' as you can see in the pics. Makes me think this might be a special edition model year???
I would consider this bike to be fair/good condition. It does have several scratches but mechanically everything works great and the components are a little worn down but should still have a couple years of regular usage left in them.
If anyone could let me know what year and model this bike is, as well as a ballpark value, I would appreciate it. Thanks

More than likely , it started out as an SR500 with 105 components , 1987 model . The serial number is on the inside of the chain stay , cant remember which side . First 2 digits is frame size , following 6 digits is the month, day , year . And welcome !

This might help
Cannondale Catalogs | VintageCannondale.com
1988 catalog has a Sante group, but in blue frame. But maybe they also sold some in white.
