Thats pretty Sneeky! Looks pretty nice hopefully lots of Ti too!

Any clue as to when we can expect them to be arriving at the bike shops? A couple months maybe?

hehehe i have ahold of the catalog and i have ridden the carbon rush posted above. i am very pumped by both

Hmmm, the 06 aluminum Team Rush comes in at 25.3. The 07's have the lighter wheelset and lighter lefty/stem setup. Not that 24.5 isn't light, but where's the weight savings from the frame?

Wow those Judges look sweet.
No Lefty on the Prophet except on the "1"

Yeah ! The DH Version rocks ! But technically nothing new compared to the 06 version ?!

That is just the europe spec. There are lefty's on all levels for the US except for the very lowest model just like last year.

I was hoping that was the case, as I thought the SL was for Europe only. Guess I won't rush th the LBS to get an 06. Also those colors leave somthing to be desired.:thumbsup:

07

I have the 2007 cannondale book!! KLM bike and fitness in birmingham has them as well as THE 2007 CARBON RUSH!!! I got to ride it around the alley and it ROCKS! It IS 23.5 lbs!!! My hard tail is 22.3!!!! thats only a pound for FS. If your at KLM ask for Clay or Blaine, they are the BEST there!!!

It seems all very strange. Without Lefty Prophet really loses it's magic, it's just another MTB.

Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with carbon frames but I love Cannondale for their Al frames, distict look and "Handmade in the USA". If the move to Asian made carbon frames is needed for the company to survive it's ok, but for me it's not the brand that's important but what the brand represents. Just look at Syncros when they were bought by GT - they put it's name on POS OEM components. That really spoiled the brand in my eyes, I'm glad that Ritchey makes some cool FR components under the brand name, but the strange taste will not disapper anytime soon.

I'm interested what will be the next steps for C'dale

:thumbsup: The complete 2007 cannondale bike line (for Europe). The language is a bit strange, but there are all models with complete specs.

So is 24.5 lbs the lightest you can build an aluminum Rush?

No Cyclocross for 2007?

 

[bad ronald]

There are 3 models including a caad9 version with integrated BB for the serious racer.
