Another Childhood Dream

It's been always a dream of mine to once own a Cannondale bike - their impressive thick aluminum tube frames, their distinctive lefty fork, and their "handmade in USA". A new mountain bike would need to be a good allrounder, offering great XC and true mountain capability as well as a full suspension. The Rush frame offers all that and more. I went for the SRAM X-9/ Shimano LX derailleur combo; the crank is a FSA Afterburner and the breaks are Avid Juicy 7. The XL frame with an extended Cannondale HeadShok Si headset fits perfectly and is a blast to ride. The Vredestein Team Replica color combination was maybe not my first choice but sure grew on me. It looks particularly slick with the supplementary CrossMax SLR wheels. Soon on a trail near you...
