$1400.00 | | Purchased At: | Cannasia Bangkok | | Strengths: | Smooth And Fast. Beautiful Color White And Blue With Yellow
Decals. Love The Geometre. | | Weaknesses: | The Ultra Head-Shock's Locking System Drives Me Up The Wall.....Like "Handle With Care" Or "Be Gentle" Or Something. | | Similar Products Used: | Probably None. | | Bike Setup: | 2000 Shimano XTR (48-36-26 Front, 12-34 Rear) Group Set.
Easton Carbon Bar, Syncros Ti 27.0, Mavic X-Max sl, Selle-Flite, And M959. Next Year, I'll Go Singlespeed On This Baby. | | Bottom Line: | The C'Dale F3000sl Is Probably One Of The Greatest Hard-tail Bikes On The Planet. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$1800.00 | | Purchased At: | Guy's Bicycles | | Strengths: | This bike is incredible!! I rode a Klein before this and that bike just didn't compare to the handling capabilities of this Cannondale!! The price was right on too. Tubeless Crossmax, XTR, and Ultra-lightweight for under $2000. Can't be beat!!! | | Weaknesses: | None really, although I had one problem with air leaking from my front tire (Tubeless). I was able to fix that by using Vaseline on the seal of the rim-wall. | | Similar Products Used: | Aluminum Klein frame setup with XT | | Bike Setup: | CAAD4 disc frame, Fatty-Ultra fork-w-lockout, Crossmax II tubeless, XTR drivetrain with Coda crank (2x9), Avid Arch Supreme brakes (better than XTR), Easton carbon bars, and Thompson post. | | Bottom Line: | If you're looking for a bike in the area of "the best" but don't have over $3000 to dish out, than this is the bike for you. All the best at half the price. Just compare this bike to other top-line bikes from GT and Trek. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Unicoi State Park - Helen, GA | | Duration Product Used: |
3 months | | Strengths: |
Light weight
Excellent Handling
Great components
Awesome front shock
Cool color | | Weaknesses: |
thinwall tubing dents easily. I had a little chainsuck and it dented the downtube! | | Similar Products Used: |
Schwinn Homegrown Factory XT Hard Tail | | Bike Setup: |
CrossMax wheelset (leftover from Schinn)
Gripshift ESP 9.0SL | | Bottom Line: | This bike is incredible. The front end is so stable and solid through the turns it puts my old Rockshox JudySL to shame! The bike literally floats over the trail at 21.7lbs (with Crossmax wheels and ESP9.0SL drivetrain). I really really dig this bike | | Overall Rating: |

WOW. A 2.8 pound fork that works better than all the rest. A 2.9lb frame that is the best. This bike is the Ultimate. It weights 22.4 lbs. STOCK!!!! All you have to do is step on a pedle and it takes off like a missle. This is a can't miss bike!! | | Overall Rating: |
