Cannondale M700
Blast from the past. I just picked this up and the shop I deal with might have a Pepperoni fork.

Bikes: A green one, "Ragleigh," or something.
"Pepperoni fork?"
Sounds tasty, but is that good or bad for riding? Never heard of that one before.

I have a red M700 as well. Shortly after purchase around the 92 timeframe i was notified by Cannondale of a factory recall on the Pepperoni fork. At that tine, the factory did some repair on the fork and it was returned with what appeared to be the same pepperoni fork. Still working fine.

Don't discount that Manitou 4! It's the best of the early production suspension forks. If the elastomers are dead, I think you can still find springs to fit. Light, stiff, reliable and CNC-awesome.
