Vintage Cannondale
Here is my latest aquisition, 1986 Cannondale SR400. It's in over-all geat condition with a couple scrapes, most likely from garage storage. I just got done going over the whole bike and it needed surprisingly little. The fella I bought it off said he got new tape, tires, and general service last year and hasn't ridden it since.
It's a 54cm so way too small for me so it's going on ebay after I take some decent pics.
These pics are terribly blurry but they'll give you a general idea of the condition of the bike.
Enjoy!

I agree that is a great looking Cdale. I love how clean and uncluttered their bikes were back then. Too bad it is too small that is a real keeper.

Very nice. Must be either an '85 or very early '86 based on the metal top tube cable guides and components. If the BB has 'CC' stamped in it, it's an '85. If the chainstay has a series of numbers stamped into it that begin with '54' then it's an '86.

Sure, as good as any. There are a couple of Cannondale related threads, but the same people all seem to watch them.
