Well Duffy, the Cannondale that I bought my last year of College is old tech, and the frame is too small for me. I was recently forced to buy a non-suspended fork for it, since the frame has a (now) non-standard collar for the fork post to run through. It still runs good on the trails but, it's a little unconfortable. I think I'm going to sell it once I replace it with a more current one. Craigslist ho!
