If it was a radiator for your Blaze, you should have given Haydug a call. He had a few new ones at very reasonable prices at one time. What is probably starting to happen is ATK is having to replinish stock on certain items and the replacements are much higher priced than the original Cannondale stuff that ATK's prices are based on. The price in the price sheet is $143.76, what did you pay from ATK?

are you sure the coolant is leaking around the cap?

You may need a cap. I have them and bottles in stock.

Speedy,

Live and learn. Haydug is not in the CannondaleRiders forum business. He makes his living keeping our bikes running. You should always give Haydug a ring first. He is always running across good deals on parts, and if he doesn't have it, he can and has refered people to other shops.
