Thank you for the post. I recently own a Cadex CFM-3 from around that area.
It looks like it's build to the specs of your sheet. I'll check it in detail.

Great Hans! Thanks for message. I am happy to have been useful for your CFM-3
I have a CFM1 Susp. Completely original, but I have yet to assemble it because i'm looking for XTR cantilever. After, it will be ready!

Cool!
I have seen some CFM 3 bikes with a suspension fork.
Do you know if this was an original option for that type of bike?
Mine has a solid fork with giant markings and decals. It is painted purple matching the frame. According to your spec sheet the solid is orginal
Maybe you know more about these types of bikes. I've made post for my bike. If you are interessted.

your bike is very nice, in excellent condition I would say! there was no suspension fork option for this model. Forbidden to put suspension fork !! 
Keep that stiff, it's beautiful! Only the CFM1 model had the Suspension option. My fork is a Mag21 with a special white color for Giant.
The bike is so beautiful, all original. The only possibility, to put some upgrades that were of the superior models, CFM2 or CFM3. This is my idea

If you want some upgrade, I have saddle Vetta SL of model CFM2 and seatpost of CFM1

Great advice, I'll keep the stock fork in the bike
As for the other parts. I think it is going to be hard to match the condition of the parts that are on my bike now.
The original saddle and seatpost are near mint.

wise decision!! Even my saddle and seatpost are like new, however if yours are new too, there is no point in replacing them

Here's the 1993 brochure for you to check spec against

Nice bike you've got, I had an immaculate frameset until not that long ago (see link in my signature if you're interested).
