Why no love for Cannondale?

[bwhsh8r]

It's because there's that next level.... a little something called "Klein"

Cannondale is like Klein minus the beautiful paint, internally routed cables... and general sexyness.

Since we are comparing the two, my early Cannondales had felt a little dead compared to my Kleins. The ride that is...

I reckon a hell of a lot more pot was smoked amongst the Klein crowd.

Not sure what that says.

Ale In Can has always come across as slightly synthetic, lacking the hard to define quality, passion and soul.

The bike was actually really nice, but the Audi set will probably turn their noses up at it.

Personally if I never have to service another damned Headshok again, it'll be too soon! :evil:[/quote]

Every 40 plus male with cash in my town seems to be riding a new Scott - "ohh look at my on my flash full suspension scott, I own the most expensive bike they make"

ahhh yes but it's the same as every other guy in your accounting office YAWN

strange as i've found my M2000 the nicest bike i've owned (it does have NOS halson inversions on it now though).

close second would be the rocky mountain Xs speed and third the raven 900sx. The Sunn Disc was really nice too (wish i hadn't sold it)

Can't compare it to a klein...they were even more than cannondales over and they still are, way out of my budget!

Its been a while since I've been about on here.
Some of you may remember I had a nasty accident and its had complications.
I bunged the bikes into storage abut have recently started getting out and about again.

Back in the late 80s early 90s they had a little bit of a yuppie image. They were the kind of bike the folk who used graphite tennis rackets bought...

The kind of bike your aviator wearing Audi drivers might favour.

YES!

I had a Cannondale road bike for years. I prefer the looks and ride of Italian steel.

Here's my 1992 M800 Beast of the East. Minus the original pepperoni fork and now sporting a Mag 21 Rockshox.
