Has anyone here experience with a street build on a cannondale frame?
I'm searching for Shocks, width axle, width a-arms.....
Street Suspension Setup
I have a cannondale with ktm engine wich I use only on the streets at this moment.
It has the Moto rear axle and Moto a-arms. On the front I use stock "speed" ohlins, wich lowers the front of the quad since the a-arms are made for long travel shocks.
On the rear I just screwed the adjuster ring all the way up to lower the quad.
In this video I had rear shocks on the front, but those were to stiff. Changed them for the speed ohlins again, gives about the same ride height.

I have the same Lc4 Engine in mine ,only the newer 2005 high flow Version
Meanwhile i found a Guy in Germany (i'm from Germany too) ,who will build me a Custom Setup with Attackshox Coilovers
Moto Parts are very hard to find these Days i guess ?!
Is the rear Axle widther on the Moto ?
Are you happy with this Setup on the Streets ?
The Moto axle is indeed wider. An aftermarket axle or wheelspacers would also work.
I actualy use a Moto axle and wheelspacers, since I have ITP ss rims wich are 1 inch narrower then the oem itp aloy rims.
This brings the total width to 50 inch.
I love the setup on the street. I have driven many different quads on the street but so far none drove as good as my setup. No problem doing 120km/h with 1 hand on the handlebars.
With the power the lc4 engine has it is best to go with the highest gearing possible, I have a 17T sprocket on the front and a 36T on the rear.
At this moment I am experimenting with different front tires but have not had time to test drive.
If you want some more power from the engine I have some tips.
