Cannondale STEALTH

[trickylad]

thanks chaps.
i saw the FS ad

two issues

- steerer might be too short (175)
- i have no more build money

easy

 

[trickylad]

should do the job nicely, looks great too.

get it weighed, it must be around 20lb id guess, when the chains on etc.

i think the forks are 3lb of that!

 

[trickylad]

19.2 lbs without the chain (and crankbolts!)

some bb issues

so i bought a 68/73 mm bb off deveron
very nice it is too

but i'm clueless about how to use spacers

deveron gave me two as the bb needs to be 73mm

the bb says slide spacer to right, but i measured them and think i need to use both cos of the 5mm difference between 68 and 73mm

but when you fix it to the bike and tighten the bb, it looks ODD - do i need both? see pic

also, on the other side, the bb ring doesn't go flush to the frame - is this normal/right?

hmmmmmmmmm..... :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

some gigapipe BBs dont go flush on one side. it should even be marked on the lockring if they dont.

I know it's an old discussion, but maybe you can help me
I have the same Cannondale frame (beautiful!) , what I'm looking for are the diameter and the legth of the bb.
Thank you!

P.S.
I've found today this forum and I can't stop reading!

what fork is that?

the straight one in the original pics is a no name 'FA' chrome fork. bomb proof but the weight was so out of kilter with the frame i swapped it for a cannondale p-bone which the steerer was too short. now i've got a on-one rigid fork very much like an older version of this without the disc tabs..
