I am searching at purchasing a acclimated alley bike. One is a Cannondale R2000 CAAD4 (I don't apperceive the year) for $500 or a Lemond Chambery OCLV (I don't apperceive the year) for $700. The added advantage is I assume to see absolutely a few Specialized Allez in the aforementioned amount range. Any advice would be abundant appreciated! Thanks guys!

Answers :I'll coment on the Cannondale: I accept a 2002 R4000, it's a CAAD 5 anatomy so were R2000s - . That agency your CAAD 4 have to be earlier again that. here's the archive:

The endure CAAD 4 R2000 was 2000 so the Cannondale is 8 maybe 9 years old.

If in actual nice action it's a acceptable bike - all Ultegra etc. I anticipate it retailed for abutting to $2000 MSRP.

Answers :Other than what MR acicular out, I would never buy a acclimated Cannondale. Their anatomy problems are legion, and if you don't apperceive how it was ridden, well, assurance could be an issue.

The Trek OCLV action (Trek makes Lemond) is approved activated and true, but a lot of humans that buy a bike like that tend to chase it (or try) which can put a lot of accent on a frame. Kind of like affairs a acclimated Mustang or Camaro... you never apperceive if it was baffled up.

Between the two, I would apparently yield the Lemond alone because I would never assurance a Cannondale beneath any circumstances.

hey guys,
just apprehensive how you all are activity afore bold 1 of lakers-nuggets.
hmm, even admitting lakers accept swept them 3-0 in reg season, i still feel its not traveling to be all the simple adjoin seed#8.
AI adjoin derek, its absolutely simple to see who's better.
then we accept kobe aginst carter...carter no chance.
however, melo vs rad, melo would be better. and finally, camby vs gasol...i'm not sure.
overall, anybody says the lakers ability ambit nuggets 4-0, however, i feel if the nuggets are on top of their game.. there's a adventitious for them to abstain a thrashing you knw.
