my 1989 Cannondale SM600, taken in 1993.
resprayed by Venom Cycles in Birmingham in Spokes and Saddles (malvern) team colours, who i did a little bit or racing for back in the day. It was a purple base coat with a duotone lacquer, so in some light it looked kinda blue ish, but in others it was purple metallic. kinda like a flip paint, but in the early 90’s
Custom Chas Bland 531 fork, flexstem, USE seatpost, XT gears, thumbies, X-Lite Stubbie pro bar ends, snowflake wheel (on those XT hubs with the grease ports) Think it was a MA40MB front rim and a 217SUP on the rear as I broke the original MA40 landing on the steps near Aquarius in Gt Malvern. Dia Compe SS5 levers, 987 front brake and deore U brake rear, crud claw and a Mt Zefal pump!
