Just pronounce Cannondale as Ca-nonn'-de-lay. This makes it sound like a French bike, then you can lay claim to bicycle snobbishness. Seriously, while they aren't classic, my first year SR-900 with Campy Super Record (reduced) was a very nice riding bike, despite the reports to the contrary. It even has a Tange steel fork with a normal crown. Since I told my wife in 1983 that it was the last bike I would ever need to buy, I have retired it and will never sell it. And it won't rust! Also, it was the last new bike I bought. Lou
