Yeah, Cannondale's still in business, they're just not making quads or Motorcycles anymore. They went bankrupt on the powersports. Why? One theory is that they spent too much money developing the engine, another is that the aluminum frame cost too much to produce..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'm only 30 miles from the Cannondale parts. ATK owns them. Ever walk into the back of a 53ft semi. Now picture 35 of them full w/ parts that are now in a warehouse.

Thats what I heard. The frame. I did not know you could still get parts though. How long do you think they will make parts and not bikes. I would think they will run out one day. as for a 250r. well everone knows out that rep. there will be parts sittting around when the sun explodes.

Banshee , ATK bought the liquidated parts and is using them as a base parts for their ATK450 quads. ATK is redesigning and replenishing whatever they run out of from old suppliers and new ones. Cannondale is back to only the bicycle division and they have nothing to do with the ATK or the old Cannondale motorsports division. More and more aftermarket parts are becoming available as time goes on. Just recently cranks new and rebuilt,water pumps,fuel pumps,plastic, connecting rods, stroker kits,bearings,valves /springs,camshafts,ignition systems,axles and just anounced diagnostic link cables.
