Price Paid:  $1200.00 at KOZY

Favorite Ride:
LAKESHORE DRIVE

Bike Setup:
All stock for now. I will put Shimano 959 peddles next week.

Summary:
I love this bike. The only downfall is it comes with no pedals. This has been a big improvement over my Giant,which was a bus.
I have a second set of wheels for off road action. I hope it works outs.
You can peel the stickers off to make it less attractive to theives.

Strengths:
Very fast. Stops on a dime with disc brakes. Light. Road boke wheels are great.

Weaknesses:
Could use a set of peddles. I will use four season tires to make it through the rain.

Price Paid:  $1650.00 at Wheel Away

Favorite Ride:
any new ones

Bike Setup:
Removed the useless 29t low gear, front shifter and derailleur and put a 46t ring up front. Massaged the Coda disc brake system to make it hold up.

Summary:
As a commuter/city bike, this baby rules. The lockout makes the shock work for this purpose. It rolls smoothly and allows a semi upright position for use in traffic. I purchased a set of 26" wheels and tried it as a cross country racer and was not impressed at all...After all these years I finally found a use for Cannondale YEAH !

Strengths:
Headshox Ultra, Steal me not finish, Lightwieght but tough. Heavy gauge spokes on light rims.

Weaknesses:
Absolutely none when used on paved roads. Look elsewhere for a mountain bike, though it might fit those with shorter torsos.
