I am not going to do down hill with my M800! She´s only going to climb and with an upgrade to VBrakes I will brake to ameliorate the tremendous speeds that can be attained in Costa Rica!

Chaps I got my M800 Beast of the East. It’s a 1994 model in red!

Cheers on your rebuild and I am appalled by the loss of the red calipers. Now the question, on my B4 the bottom bracket pivot is moving sideways. Are there any pointers to replace this pivot pin?

From the pictures in vintagecannondale.com it is visible the added height of the bottom bracket, the shortened saddle tube and the lengthened seat post. Therefore, if my 1994 M400 is a 20" frame, should I consider a 18" M800 Beast of the East instead? On my 21.5" AMP Research B4 I feel in a...

Re: Beast of the East Thanks for your response, indeed it looks higher than the M900 or others. My M400 looks about the same as the M900, perhaps today it has the same components. Well I will look for one both in the USA and in my country. Almost anybody remembers them and the former...

What size is the frame of this beauty? How tall are you?

Indeed it is AL which means that I will have to live with it! Regards, Robert

Dear Chaps: I discovered a small dent, probably less than 2 mm in diameter in my beloved Cannondale R900Si CAAD5. There is no scratching of the paint, however, I suspect that it fell and dented the seat stay while on the bike shop and they didn't disclose the issue. How should I attempt to...

Chaps I am here to ask about the virtues of the sloping frame design and the hot name (for those of us who went to school in New England, perhaps if I attended school in sunny Sacramento, CA I might be asking about a Hell of the West bike) of the Beast of the East M800 vs the more traditional...

AMP Disk brake caliper I hope that you have a spare caliper that you can sell to me!

Re: RockShox So this means that the calipers will bolt to my AMP without modifications to the bracket and they will fit to my disks? And what is the cost with shipping within the USA? Can you also quote airmail to San Jose Costa Rica?

Do you still have Original AMP's calipers in aluminum finish? What is the damage and can I pay with PayPal? I don't know if those RockShox will fit!

Calipers original AMP Do you still have Original AMP's calipers in aluminum finish? What is the damage and can I pay with PayPal? I don't know if those RockShox will fit!

Piston for AMP Research disk brake caliper Indeed! That's something that Ive considered!

After having both calipers rebuilt in a Germany, the front one failed to the point that there is no pressure to close the pistons and brake. The tech said that one of the calipers has an oversized piston that he doesn't carry in his spare parts. I think that I am contemplating the demise of...

Re: AMP RESEARCH disk brake caliper Dear Retrobikers: I'm looking for a AMP Research disk brake caliper. Do you know the whereabouts of one, perhaps from a totaled bike? Mine according to Mr Weber in Germany, one of the calipers has an oversized piston and on mine that means no pressure to...
