Should I Start Saving?
 

It has come to my attention that one of my LBS has an NOS Cannondale Track hanging from the rafters. It has a full complement of all NOS Superbe Pro components sans pedals (which i have a set anyway). Im not sure what the rims are since i cant get it down, but they are tubs and the tires are not and have never been glued, the rims would probalby be replaced but I am getting ahead of myself ... They want 699 for it, im not sure if i can bargan with them because they really aren't looking to get rid of it (its kind of part of their bike museum type stuff) but its still for sale. Should I spring for it... I really like but i dont know.... I need opinions.

Ooh. Personally, if I was in the market for a new track bike, I'd do it.

does it fit your body
?

i can ride from a 54 to a 58 and be completely comfortable im flexible. im pretty sure its a 55-56. not sure though good question. even if it didnt i still its still tempting for the Superbe Stuff to move to another frame

Sounds like a good price. I would be all over it, I love those frames.

Where is this shop and will they take credit card over the phone?

im not telling;) and im not sure..... whats it worth to you?

pics or stfu

yeah no ****, i didnt have my camera today i wish i would have thought about it

Whatever, I'm just going to call every shop in Kansas. That will take me 10 minutes tops.

i'd say go for it, but sell off the rims and tires while they're still new. an extra $150 for new rims + a good wheel build isn't so bad because that already sounds like a pretty damn good deal.

the sad thing is you are right.

yeah the rims and tires would be the first things to go. black v's would look sweet.

You are talking like a '93 Cannondale track right?

yup and its that awesome blue. why the **** didnt i bring my camera.

Oh jeez.

yeah

buy that sh*t!!!

Superbe Pro?

I'm hitting the online yellow pages!!

The worst thing you did was come here with that info.

I'm not really going to buy it but some people have no mercy with stuff like that so keep it to yourself, THEN come here and show-n-tell.

Superbe Pro Drivetrains are hard to come by... NOS? Even more! Borrow some money or sell yourself.

Get that bike!

you could probably part the thing out on ebay and get mebbe $1200+(?) for all the components and frame if you split it up..

you could probably get $1200 for the parts alone and keep the frame

I'd buy the bike like that. I love those things

buy it.

buy it then flip it/part it out..

Track bike, Cannondale with Original Suntour group: $699

Riding said bike with said accoutrement 6 blocks to local bar and taking 150 pictures of the journey there for myspace and flickr: PRICELESS

Oh, you...
