Industry Description:

Thanks to its quick, responsive handling and ride-all-day compliance, Cannondale’s CAAD8 5 is perfect for fitness and fun, and for weekend warriors and even aspiring racers. Its svelte aluminum frame features a teardrop-shaped down tube with a large-diameter, thin-wall profile for an optimum blend of lightness and stiffness for awesome efficiency. Up front, Cannondale’s Ultra carbon fork steers like a laser and cancels out vibrations so you stay comfortable hour after hour. This fine frame is equipped with an easy-rolling wheelset and a crisp-shifting 20-speed FSA/Shimano 105 drivetrain with compact gearing for easier climbing. Plus, you also get grippy Specialized tires for carving the corners, powerful Tektro dual-pivot brakes, and a nice stem, bar, seatpost and seat from Cannondale.

A little about the seller:

I’ve been in the cycling industry for more than 30 years (I know, that makes me old!). I’ve been a professional bicycle mechanic for most of those years, including working locally at Lee’s Cyclery before they became Trek Stores. Now I work from home as a Customer Success Manager for a software team. But I still love fixing up and working on bikes, and riding them too!

Purchase from me with peace of mind. Not only can you trust my years of experience, but I will also fit you for the bike and provide any mechanical insight at the time of purchase. No warranties or refunds, provided. The bikes are sold as-is. But It includes follow-up minor adjustments and fitting if needed within the first 30 days if sold locally.


Shipping information:

I ship UPS Ground and the bike is disassembled. I do have a video to help in putting back together.  Usually, it’s the Bars, Front Wheel, Pedals, and Seatpost that need to be put back on. I try to keep it simple. It will be packed very well, but if you see any damage to the box or bike keep the box and packing material plus, take pictures. I do insure all bikes that are shipped and require a signature. In addition, if shipped out of Colorado, there is no Sales Tax.

 

Colorado customers, try to buy Local. Info below:


For Local Purchases Only:

 

If you’re local to Loveland, Colorado, it is highly recommended to come to check it out in person. A professional fitting is included with each bike sold to ensure you have the right size bike and it fits you. All bike showings are by appointment only, so feel free to grab some time off of my calendar.
