Look at the welds & fit of parts..& it's only a proto... Protos are normally rougher than a cob. According to the new DW the msrp is just $6900 & change.

According to an interview by ATV Sport with the honcho at Cannondale, the company has moved up production due to the terrific response at a recent manufacturers & dealer show & expect it to be available by this Fall.

I've got my deposit in,, And I'm first on the list.

I wonder how hard it would be to install some disposable kevlar highfax Skids,(Just like snowmobile kevlar highfax,s) to the bottom of those "really choice" frame rails to protect them.

I know the first thing I'm gonna do is lose those tires, And throw on a set of XCT's

350 pounds.......and 50hp ,,,"Right out of the crate" ;Ahhhh. .Reminds me of the good OLE days!

Time to look for better timing chips..........

The idea of the easy engine removal makes me wonder how sturdy the frame is going to be, but cannondale has a good reputation with sturdy light-weight bicycle frames. The bike itself looks really promising, and I'm excited about the coming of Cannondale. I'd like to see how they run against a banshee, 400ex, and the ds.
