1989 Cannondale SR500 Black Lightening

Another Craigslist find. Such a fan of those extended chain stays and this one has the fat down tube as well. Paint was a bit challenged so decided to strip and polish it. Still looking for the right cockpit; experimented with some Cinelli stuff and a modern riser drop bar, but for now I'm liking the one piece carbon bar and stem. Not the most comfortable ride, but it's fast and SO cool!

Thank you. It's always fun picking through parts and choosing what looks and feels best. Your 90' Bontrager OR is awesome.
