Default is a cannondale safe and reliable?

i am really thinking about getting one i just want to make sure that nothing will break and if it does i want to make sure that i will be able to find parts for it. does anyone know of any websites or shops that sell stock or aftermarket parts for cannon's? thanks

Fx400's are sweet . They had more stock power than the newer quads . The downside a cable clutch,the right front crank main bearing needs to be replaced with a newer heavier duty one. These had an early ecm which is less capable for extreme tuning but very robust and reliable. There were a couple recalls on the fx400's ball joints and front shocks but those should have been taken care of years ago with beefy parts.
