did you know in 2004 cannondales were getting a cosmetic makeover? cycra made new fenders that look similar to the preditor. 1 bolt air filter access with built in lights like the Z400. i really hope they still release them to us. they rock!

I spoke directly to Cycra at the Indy show about the new plastic that they were supposedly making for the Cannondale,the guy looked at me like I was crazy.I don't know your source but I would definately question it before posting any information from it.

He is right, Cycra was working on a new front fender and they had a few made up, but they can't sell the new fender because Cannondale owns the rights to it. Pretty much boils down to...it got thrown in the dumpster! :-(

they have some done. They guy was really floored that anyone outside knew anything about them. I am to speak with him today regarding getting some of the new style fenders(dealer). No one was supposed to know about them. Also I am going to try and pick up some of the regular plastics. They have ALOT of them and still are able to tool and produce them.

PS the first engine mount kit works great, but looking for a different material grade for the bolt.

Hey Trav ,I stand corrected,this would explain the look of shock on the Cycra reps face when I asked him on Saturday.Good investigating and I apolagize for any false accusations.
