1986 Cannondale SM500:

The early Cannondale bikes were really ahead of their time by being the first company to sell large numbers of aluminum mountain bikes.  This one has a Suntour XC Sport drive train which was amongst the first mountain bike specific parts that were available.  This one is in better than average condition for a 20 year old mountain bike but duplicates another in our collection so we are offering this one up for sale.  The frame is 17" c-t or 19" top the very top of the seat tube with a 22.25" top tube.  $395 + shipping.
