Its a Cannondale F800, (year 2003 or 4?). Its almost completely new and has a few very minor scratches here and there. Has Shimano Deore XT derailer, Judy Magura disc brakes. I actually bought it on Ebay and the only reason I'm selling it is that it's the wrong size for me. It's a small, not a medium. It fits someone who is between 160-175 CM tall, but I'm 180 CM.

I like to get 950,000 won for it since I actually had to pay about 1.1 after the customs tax and even more than that after shipping. That figure is somewhat negotiable.

Send me a message or my email is hard_drivver at yahoo dot com.

Hey there! Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't a Cannondale small run about 16 inches from center of bottom backet to the top of the seat tube? If you have a way of measuring this it would be helpful. Thanks.

Yes, that is exactly right. It's 16 inches, or 40 cm... When I got it on Ebay, the seller said it was a medium.. which is 18 inches. They dont even make a seat big enough to give me that kind of extension.... So the bike is useless to me... and its really annoying because except for the size, it look really sweet and I wish I could ride it.

Here's the cannondale size chart for F800.

Yes, I have pics... send me a message and I can email them.

Fork is a "lefty Jake" (thats what you mean by Judy, I guess (?))........ you know, its like a motorcycle fork rather than an eating fork. You can lock it out and adjust it. Only annoying thing about it, maybe, is that you need an allen key remove the front wheel; it can't operate with a quick release.

Its got hydraulic disc brakes... they're "julie" not judy hehe... model is "magura" on those brakes. Rear derailer is Deore XT. Front is Deore. It has a seatpost with a built-in shock... dont know the company. Mavic wheels. Continental tires. Frame is CAAD 5.

Its in near-new condition. I'd say someone probably rode it for a month or so and then it ended up in a garage for a long time.

where are you located? i'd be interested in sizing it to see if it fits me or not. i typically ride a 17" frame, but have had a few 16" frames that fit fine depending on the geometry.

I sold Cannondales in Vancouver for about a year. That's a very good price for a very good bike. But I'd break it in half.
