1990 Cannondale SM2000

Retro Newbie
Was recently given this 22" 1990 SM2000, finally a bike in my size! First and only owner believes it's mostly original except for switching shifters to Gripshift (which were breaking into pieces) and different tires, but I've not seen a stock SM2000 with these wheels. It's covered in red clay dust and a bike rack has done a number on the downtube paint but I think it'll be a rider.

Great find! I am currently restoring exactly the same bike in one size smaller, coincidentally. The wheels were Wolber 18, and quite heavy:

My bike also has quite a bit of paint chipping, and I am planning to restore the paint in these places with model paint. IF you plan to do so too, I'm happy to share my findings on colour codes ;)

Oh, and the Pepperoni fork is super light with the short threaded 1" stem:
