I want to hump this bike. I love how clean and simple it is:



Oh my, how I love Cannondales. I remember wanting one SO BAD when I was way into moutain bikes in junior high:



Cool drawing I found on FGG:

Yeah I used to want a Cannondale "Lefty" Mt bike so badly. I love the single sided fork design for some reason. Plus, I'm left handed so it just made the name that much cooler.

I am selling the black frame with headset, stem, seat post, bottom bracket and crankset. It is a 1971 Viscount road bike conversion. The bike was originally white and red but it was stripped to bare metal and painted black. It has chips pretty much all over. I even have a set of spare track wheels i could throw in for a little extra. That leaves almost a complete track bike. Oh yeah i have bars too i could throw in.

I've been lookin' at their ebay shop. I was gonna ask you about them cuz I thought they were in your area. I guess I don't have to ask.

Does anyone know where I can buy a water bottle cage designed to hold a 40oz? Seems like I've seen one before one a site?

What kind of bar tape do you guys recommend? I am looking at Cinelli right now.

i just wrapped my fixie with cinelli, it's nice and comfy. stretches nice, (shittier qualities don't stretch well) but be careful not to rip it

Thanks for posting that. I just confirmed to myself again that I should be riding 48/17 instead of 48/18. Grrr...
