It's Dead!
Cannondale has shut down for good and Rad 2 Go did not Buy the Motor division. Turns out the price was to high and now we are F#$ked.
I hope not!!!
My wife has talked to southbay last Wednesday and they say things are looking good to hang in there.
She called because I told here I was going to quit racing because
my Cannondale is probley past due for a rebuild after a year and a half of racing.I am scared to put more money into it not knowing what the future has in store.The bike still runs as strong as the day I got it with out any smoke.So I figured to take the loss now and sell it before its to late.
The next day she had an e-mail from south bay giving me some peace of mind.Hows that for a dedacated wife;)
She said I dont want to quit now send it to south bay and rest at ease.
I will not be happy with no other quad out there today,and I dont have the cash to start over from scratch to build a custome quad.
Its eather this Cannondale or I quit.
So she talked me into riding it out till it is completly over.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL CANNONDALE OWNERS!

I spoke to a very reliable source today who stated to me that things are looking shakey,he has been right on the money with all information over the last 5 months.He also stated that the longer it goes without a buyer the worse it gets.I also know of a couple of indivduals with very prominent businesses that have been tracking parts manufactures and will be purchasing the some of the edible parts in bulk ie.-clutches-camchain sliders,and hard to find parts.If everything does go sour we still have people pulling in our favor,keep your heads up.
I can not say who the parts dealer was but i can say it was not Quad Shop. I have been trying to get a new chain slide for awhile. I called the place that has it on order. we talked for awhile. They told me they have learned that... Rad 2 Go does not have the money to buy the whole moto division and talks are final. Pegasas is going to sell off piece by piece till they have sold it all.
I am not trying to start a he said she said. I am very mad that this deal did not go through. I truly want the future of Cdale quads and moto's to grow.
