Strengths:    The frame and fork are fantastic!

Weaknesses:    The pedals, seat and seatpost were not great. Also the bike comes with Shimano Sora shifters.

Bottom Line:   
I just bought a 2003 Cannondale R400 sport for Xmas and it rocks! I had a 1999 Silk Road 500 and the R400 is much better. It is lighter and requires less maintenance than the Silk Road because of the fork. I usually ride on the weekends and this bike is fantastic for recreational riders!

Strengths:    Carbon fiber fork, shock absorbing seatpost, riders position

Weaknesses:    Saddle is a little too wide, the R400 sport is about 1 MPH slower than my R600 and it does not handle quite as well

Bottom Line:   
I totalled my Cannondale R600 this summer and wanted a less expensive replacement. I was going to buy the R400 triple then I rode the R400 Sport. I liked the slightly more upright riding style. I thought I would hate the shock absorbing seatpost but it really soaks up the bumps and is easy on my back. This is a nice fast bike for doing long rides comfortably.
