Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I'm thinking late 80's. It's got the cantilevered rear drop out, which was before the CAAD series of bikes.

The pics are too small to make much out of.

The Cdale is a decent bike. If its in good shape it certainly would be worth fixing, although the ride will be a bit rough compared to modern Al bikes.

Also, Al bikes can fatigue, and eventually fail, as well as corrode. One over 20 years old, if it's been ridden hard could be at the end of its useful life. I'd check the frame carefully for cracks and corrossion beforeI put time and treasure into it. But if it's in good shape, its definitely worth fixing up.

that would be a Cannondale 3.0 SR 600 from about 1990 I believe. I have the very bike in that color from 1990. Stiff ride, climbs like no ones business, a little harsh on long rides.
