Cannondale Frame ID please?
These are the only photos I've got from the seller. Maybe someone more versed in Cannondale can help me ID. I searched "Cannondale Mavic" but wasn't getting anything back.
Campy headset and crank. A lot of the decals don't appear to be original. Sakae fork. Shimano 600 RD. Made in USA. I also see a big dent.
Thanks for any info!

!st or 2nd year SR model frame (1984-ish), with after market replacement aluminum fork.
Original fork was a typical Tange steel fork
Somebody was sticker-happy.
Chainrings look pretty worn.
Not worth much, IMO.

Could be an 85, but no newer than that. Two dents on chainstay are for ring and pedal clearance, all of them from the 80's have them on the drive side. One on the NDS as well for pedal clearance.
Clearly a respray with a fork replacement. I'd ask the seller if he has the original Tange steel fork, they were very nice.

The seller is only asking $60. I was going to try and clean up and part the crankset, headset and frame to make a little cash.

Both dents are intentional. Just looks messy with the sticker and peeling paint.
