My frame will be delivered on Monday and I'm currently rounding up all the parts for it.
I have everything except a seat post.
Can anyone tell me what the seat tube diameter is on a mid-90s Cannondale Track frame?

27.2mm

Rad.
Thanks.

I'm jealous o' you, boyo.

My friendship with Asher is nothing of which you need to be jealous.

ATTN Everyone:

This is now a 2-person thread. Post accordingly.



I was not referring to that, but rather to your fortuitous acquisition of an early-model (green) Cannondale Track frame. A fellow Scram!-er has one here (my size - 60 - , too) that I salivate over every time I see it. It is, to use Ferris Buellor's words, "so choice." I would kill and eat a baby for that bike.

Oh, right right right...the bike.
I was supposed to get it today. I could barely sleep last night.
But for some reason it got stuck in Portland's FEDEX complex for a few days and now wont be here until Monday, which I suppose is whatever because the cranks, BB and saddle still have yet to arrive. But still sucks.

did you ever figure out why UPS said it's a bianchi pista?

The guy at the shop said that he just didn't/forgot to change the reference tag.
They had a Pista for sale on their site that they must have also sold and shipped at the same time I bought the C-dale.

i like my new c-dale

and i like that 165 refers to it as my "crapnfail"

Haha, he does?
What does that even mean?

crack-n-fail
due to their propensity to, well, crack and fail

That's just great...

mmmmm

mid nineties c-dale

ahhhhhh[homer simpson drooling sound]

I just wrecked my 92' for the upteenth time just yesterday. Got doored and SERIOUSLY f'ed up the guy's car with my bike. Again. Nada. Crazy how many crashes this thing's survived. I thought for sure I would've folded it in half by now.

Whoa, sorry about letting other people into the thread. I just got irresponsibly drunk, and then came to remarkably quickly. So: Awesome. I want (a specific) one like whoa.

Ha, my bike got mentioned. I don't know if it's worth the death of a baby after an unfortunate incident with a burley and 85 pounds of paper. I'll ride it until it explodes anyway.

and to the OP: my green can takes a 27.0 post. for whatever reason.

Can I get a picture?
My shipment being delayed, I really want to see some cannondale porn.

did i sell yout that?

mine that I sold, got back, and got a surprise. Details coming in the following weeks. It's a good story!

*drool

This waiting is killing me.
And even when the frame arrives, the crankset and BB probably still wont be here.

Dirty and ugly.

Original dolface picture.


Very old pics. I have a perscription for a bar change once every two weeks.

edit: yup, got it from dolface. I love it and worked on it through winter.

It's still the favorite frame I've ever ridden - of any style bike. So goddamn fast, it senses moves before you even realize you're about to turn.

(NOTE: I haven't had a chance to ride the Don Walker yet - hopefully I'll get that assembled next week)

the happiest day of my life will be the day i finally score a 57/58/59 cannondale track frame... *sigh*
