Strengths:

Light, stiff, and can take a beating. Climbs like a goat. Able to bomb downhills and easily survive a 5 foot table drops all day.

Weaknesses:

it is a rigid - I mean rigid. Hitting a hole while not paying attention transfers a good shock to the hands and wrist. But for the strength and durability, I'll live with it.

Bottom Line:

Purchased the bike brand new and will never part with it. The stock compoents served me well for many years. I have had this bike throw me off the front and watched it bounce of the trail into the woods and come out with barely a scratch. Fully taco'd front wheel - frame and fork completly intact. I have crashed this bike many times and other than scratches the bike is still in perfect shape 15 years later. Just recently took the bike off the garage wall (about 2 years ago) and upgraded all of the components and wheel set with some slicks and been using it as a daily commuter.

Strengths:

Beautiful and stiff frame. I bought the bike in 1995 and never had any regrets. I will keep the bike all my life, and have completely upgraded the original components little by little throughout the years. So far the weight of the bike is down to 10kg 400.

Weaknesses:

The Shimano LX hub in the rear wheel, cantelever brakes and Aheadset.

Bottom Line:

None, the bike still catches the eye from the public today even though it dates from 1995.

Strengths:

This is one strong bike. I started riding it when I weighed 550 lbs, I commuted daily with it, added panniers to it and rode it about 10 miles per day, I even carried my flywheel for my jeep, it weighs 65 lbs to get it turned. I pulled the spokes out of the rear rim by riding it.

Weaknesses:

the componants are not the best. i replaced all moving parts on that bike over the years.

Bottom Line:

great frame, it is my bike, customized to my likeing.

Strengths:

Great.A reliable beast.Responsive,reliabe,dependable.Thanks Cannondale!

Weaknesses:

None so far,except for the B.B. But that is hardly the frame's fault.

Bottom Line:

I'm a big guy.It keeps me rolling over Japan's awful roads and ashphalt.I really love my bike!!If you need something to commute on a day to day basis,this is it.I feel as steady on this as if I was walking.I have added Nimbus tires and Avid brakes--stops on a dime.

Thanks for looking.
