1996 Cannondale R900, thinking about passing it on.
I've had a fun rebuilding and riding this R900 2.8 with original groupset after picking it up from a fella on Craigslist. The 60cm frame is solid with minor blemishes that I polished as best as I could. Has the original carbon forks in good condition. The brifters, RD, crank and brakes are Shimano 600 and the FD is Shimano 105. It came with a Cinelli 120mm stem that was too long for me, so I installed a stem adapter and a 90mm stem to the Cinelli Gilo bars. Wheels are Shimano WH-R560 aero with bladed spokes in new condition with new Continental Ultra Sport 700-23C tires and tubes. It has Wheel Up gel seat and aluminum pedals. New Cinelli bar tape. All new cables installed at the LBS. 21 pounds as it sits.
Now that I'm 64 I'm thinking it might be better suited to a younger rider and I'm wondering what the value might be as it is?

Try reloading them, it happens to me sometimes. I don't even see them in the Gallery tab

The polished Cannondales are pretty --- should be worth about 325 on the high end,
Ive paid as little as $125 for similar bikes on the low end but I felt that was an anomaly

Agree with DMC. Looks very clean. Im going to say, for a quicker sale, 250 to 300. People that jump on the cheaper bikes can expect to throw in another 100-150 in repairs. Fan of the 600 sti, good luck.
