Cannondale Black Lightning
What do we think the value of this Cannondale Black Lightning is? The Connecticut listing has only the one below picture. The seller reduced the price from $750 to $100 in a week. The only details listed are that it’s a 90s era bike with “Sugino AP13 gears”. I can’t make out from the pic the model derailers and shifters.
Is it flip worthy? 2 hour drive it would be.
Thanks!

$100 is a screaming deal
odd that they dropped the price that far, I'd suspect cleaned up these are more like $350-400 ish as the Black Lightning model is usually priced at a bit of a premium

At $100 I’d be in the car if it was under 2 hour drive, for that price even if it didn’t fit I could put the Suntour on my Batavus

That's a very good price cleaned up nice if you don't keep it I would say $300-400 value. This one looks to have all the original matching black components in fairly good shape which is a big plus.

If you are not driving there now, you are probably too late.

Lol 😂 I drove two hours today to get the Schwinn Circuit. My wife thinks I ran some local errands. A 4 hour (round trip) disappearing act will require a feat of magic. Hahah I’m gonna contact the seller now!
