I know the picture is horrible, but the bike is an insane ride.
This was a replacement for a 2005 Aegis I unfortunately got into an accident on a few months ago
and cracked the frame.
Nothing but good things to say about Aegis!

Thanks. that killer V 900 frame is from back in 1995. I bought it while I was stationed over in Germany. The 5200 I JUSt bought about 3 weeks ago. from what I've been reading I got a hell of a deal on it.
maxx that seat post is a Cane Creek thudbuster. believe it or not, it actually works. my butt is much happier on the trails with that on there.

oh, and that cannondale frame is pretty light. the entire bike as you see it there only weights 24 pounds.

The company is out of Maine, U.S.A. and they make killer frames. They just came out with the "ZAERO" which is insane also.....

update
Finally satisfied with my 06' Felt F3C (better be). I did the last two updates to the bike that I wanted. More importantly, I'm rid of the FSA SL-K compact crankset and it's bad design BB system, etc issues.
Shimano FC-R700 (50/34)
Also put a pair of keo carbons in place of the classics...not a huge difference but noticeable.

exactly...they're good....they bring me to a stop (even on the hills around here), and they're not too heavy (as far as cheap brakesets go)...i have another set on my bianchi (the silver ones)

They're a set of xero lite XR-1's with the decals taken off. The rim is supposed to be like velocity aeroheads(?) I had originally planned on getting wheels from oddsandendos; however, I waited 2 weeks before an email reply and had already ordered these. The wheelset only set me back $200 and are perfectly suited for my 130lbs.
