Another Clyde ride is being prepped.

1997 Cannondale R300 CAAD2 60cm. A great match for my 1986 KHS in 60cm. I got it a couple months ago as a dirty nasty mess. Not even rideable.

Hard to tell, I thought it was black. Nope. Super black with a teal metal flake. Red dirt from Moab, Ut...


This is a budget build, mostly stuff on hand. The original wheelset has too narrow of rims, had 700x23 tires. Stole the wheels from my Marin hybrid project (it may see it's day soon...) and slipped on some 700x25s from the bike Collective. I couldn't find a matching pair of 28s, and not real sure they'd fit the R300. New bottom bracket and new headset. Bars swapped to get a little rise and swapped 3x7 RSX brifters for 3x9 Sora. (RSX brifters are going on a drop bar MTB project, I think...)

Still have cleaning of the crankset to do, but maybe a ride this weekend.
