Cannondale r600 caad4
Are these bikes still somewhat competitive? I know the rider makes the difference. I’ve come across one I can get in relatively decent shape for $300. It has the Shimano 105 gear.
Also, I can’t find anywhere how much they weigh.
I appreciate any insights anyone can give here. Not sure if it’s worth that price. Thanks.

You can find some specifications at Vintage Cannondale. They have old Cannondale catalogs and other info.

I put about 8k km on a CAAD4 frame over the last few years with no issues. Geometry is agressive enough to feel racy but they're a bit harsh by modern frame standards.

OTOH this was from the time when Cannondale was still touting the utter rigidity of its frames, before they started adding features to make them ride smoother, and also when the skinniest tires were in vogue.
Also it's an XL bike. Are you an XL person?
