Some CANNONDALE Bicycle PDF Manuals above the page.
Cannondale Bicycles started in 1971 in the United States, with founders Joseph Montgomery, Jim Catrambon and Ron Davis.
Initially, the company produced bicycle bags and camping bags, and later began producing trailers for touring bicycles.
These were the world's first trailers for the big ones, and a year later the company introduced its "child" to American consumers.
The project was a success, so later the company was able to seriously engage in the development and production of bicycle accessories and clothing.
The main value of the brand - frames. The most expensive are made by hand in the United States, then they are completed in the Netherlands.
All Cannondale frames have a lifetime warranty, but only if you have purchased them from an authorized dealer. You also need to be the first owner of a bicycle.
In 1983, Cannondale engineers introduced their first bicycle - it was a touring model Cannondale ST-500 with the latest, at the time, aluminum frame.
Analysts predicted its failure, due to the high price and unusual appearance, but over time, sales were unexpectedly large.
Subsequently, the company released a new road and mountain bikes SM-500 and SR-500, and later on the road are already professional riders.
