That's pretty funny Froze,
Looked at the name of the link and I said, hey, 1984 Trek 660, can't believe it ... same bike.
This one's in the midst of being fixed up. I'd like to change the handlebars and stem first. Brakes also need some work.

There are few Cannondales that appeal to me, but I have to say that your frame, and hmai18's frame, are sensational.
Great choices.

I'm very intrigued by the Synapse. After 1000 miles on my 2006 Cannondale Six13 I'm pretty psyched about Cannondale's new designs. I'd love to test ride one. Maybe next year....

My most used road bike is my 1984 rebuilt Centurion. I have rebuilt it with a Sora triple drive train, cheap o wheels from a local LBS failure sale, Tekro brakes from a Giant, unknown carbon fork off ebay, Crane Creek levers, Salsa HB, Velo seat, Ritchie seatpost.

Bike feels stiff enough and she spins up to speed very fast. I would say that the acceleration is due to the wheels more than the frame itself.

As for the sticker... it's just an aesthetics thing for me. I'm a guy who has no stickers on his frame... personal choice.
Nice ride, BTW.
