Help, Input on Retro Cannondale MTB
Hi. First off, I don’t know a lot about bikes like nomenclature although I’ve tinkered a lot. Circa 1995 I got a slightly used Cannondale. The paint job was dark iridescent green but was messed up so I had it repainted black. Used it on and off for decades and finally tire was dry rotting and it was put in storage.
Now I’m bent on doing something with it because I want to start riding again and it deserves it. I’ve always loved the feel of it it’s very light but strong. I started trying to find out what model it is, which led to a rabbit hole involving two different AI guides and insane back and forth.
FINALLY, it appears that I have a 1990 SM700 frame with 1993-4 fork and components. Should I just work on getting it running and keep it simple or is it worth a proper restoration (or not) to sell?
Thanks.
