Show me your Cannondale's with "Leftys" I've been a longtime Trek lover and from learning a bit about Cannondale I may have found something I really like.
The custom the better.
Hints and tips too!
Not on a Cannondale but looks hot.
Long time fan of them, this is my current one on a rush, only original bits are the lefty and frame!

(Excuse mudguards, thought it was going to be wet)
Mudguards are where it's at dude! i run them on mine always. 🙂
Although, yours does look like a crosser. 🙂
Don't have a pic of the whole bike but some peepshow teasers for you.

They seem like a right pain getting wheel on and off all the time. Is there a quick release version?

Why would you want to? You can change a tyre/tube with the wheel still on the bike. If you do have to remove the wheel its three hex bolts and is probably still quicker than any bolt through options
they take about 30secs to get off loosen brake mount then undo axle with same allenkey
ooooooh.... I'm getting more and more excited about owning one! Ride feel guys, what're they like?
leftys are gay
