Hey guys,
After speaking with Ed Teixeira on the phone today, I'm proud to announce that we have five sets of a-arms for sale at a special price. Teixeira Tech a-arms are constructed of 4130 chromoly with precise tig welds. This front end package allows camber, caster, and toe adjustment. The arms come complete with tierods, ball and heim joints, and bushings. They are set up to use 20-3/4" shocks. These arms originally sold for $985/set.

Ed has allowed me to pass some savings on to the Cannondale community. I have five sets of these a-arms for sale at $425 a set. Powdercoating adds $25. Once they're gone, the price will go up!

The five sets up for sale are as follows:
1 set black powdercoat
2 sets silver powder coat
2 sets bare (uncoated).

If you have a special request for a color, please give me a call.
Thank you for reading,
wanablaze
(847) 354-1398.

No. If I recall correctly, stock was approx 17" for all models except moto (19").

Yes, they are. To quote Ed, "The reasoning behind the +2.5 was to keep the dale under the 50" mark and it also helps transfer weight to the outside wheel in hard cornering."

Are there still 4 sets remaining? This sounds like a great deal. Do I need different shocks for this?

Sorry about the slow reply,
I've been a bit behind with all the carbon stuff lately. I have two sets remaining at this price. Here are a few pictures:

Yes, you will need different front shocks. More info here:

Thats a heck of a deal and a great product. I wasn't planning on getting shocks any time soon. Maybe something used and cheap will come up.
