Not sure where a MTB with 700c wheels really fits, but I guess it’s further from road to live in this section!!!
I’ve just bought a bad boy for no real reason other than it’s damn cool! But struggling to work out what I’ve actually got… the serial number doesn’t resolve on the cannondale website and there are so many permutations of the bike over the years…
So, it’s black with black reflective stickers.
700c
8speed Alfine chain drive, (not gates - rear stay doesn’t split)
Eccentric BB
Single crown lefty
Brakes are retrofitted 2016 XT hydraulic discs
Serial number TG20xxx which hints at 2007 but it doesn’t look that old and the 2008 catalog only shows normal forks and derailleurs on the bad boy.
