Late 80s Cannondale SR600

Picked this up over a year ago. Did a tune up and its been stored indoors since then because it was to big for me(its a 58cm). Its in extremely good condition and looks to be hardly ridden. All original Shimano 600 components and components.

It is worthless because the tire labels aren’t centered over the valve stem.

Great looking bike.

Man, I love the color! From the photo you posted, the condition certainly looks great. Have the bearings been repacked recently, or does that still need done? I’d think $300-$350 if it’s been serviced. Maybe $100 less if the service still needs done. I’m no expert on cannondale pricing, that is just a gut feeling.

$300ish plus sounds about right if the bike has been rebuilt. It's a beautiful bike and in fine shape but a lot depends on where the OP lives. That price sounds about right for my mid sized city in the Midwest but I don't live in a hot market.

Tires, condition of the frame and parts, color, and the fact that is a Cannondale all point to this going at the upper level of the valuation range.

if you sell the bike for $300 - you are almost giving it away

I would keep it before I sold it for $300

You know I love me some Cannondale, especially the ‘88’s. Price on this one will be dragged down by color (yes, I know- we love it but most do not).
Last one I had in Rose with Tricolor just would.not.sell., so had it powdercoated in black, sold it in a day.
When selling, mention the actual CTC frame measurements, seems to me a 58 of that era is like 56cm square, fits most folks 5’9” and up depending on leg length.
I think somewhere around $340-400 is about right.

I would have people occasionally yelling expletives me. Had it happen with a Trek 1200 in Pink Lettering and Black, and occasionally oddly with a Centurion Ironman in Red and White. (A few main artery secondary roads lead right up to York County)

I had a very similar Cannondale that I sold for $200 and it was a slog to flip that bike. 12 years ago.
As is but all it needed was tires and someone with a brain to come and look at it. That can be a task, I have done it enough.
This bike was 25 Inches and the bike the OP posted looks smaller. Center Crank, Top Seat Post measurement.
Somebody went on about how Cannondale measured the bike. Thankfully by then I only was taking emails and just deleted his unhinged response. (It's amazing how revealing emails can be of how goofy people are. They display their colors very quickly often. While buyers are quick, and to the point.)
