that front brake is amazing too. "screw that venting crap, lets just put some bigger pistons on"

How does that ride compare to the KHS Dominatrix?

like saying a yugo is better than a pinto. The fulcrum was originally designed to run with the triple chain setup, so chainring "size" would have no effect on the rear wheel. Sort of like a jackshaft, but with more chains. when you get into the dual linkage setup, small changes can have a huge effect, just ask DW and Giant and Canfield and Banshee and...and...and....etc.

the "bl" is referenced in the questions section.

It would be extremly interesting & maybe highly dangerous too to see the top DH racers do a retro race each on thier manufacturers DH bike from 1997!

I'd buy it if it was the prior version with all the chains and ugly as hell fork. It's a piece of history :)

MMMM Fulcrumtastic. Too bad it's not one of the multi-chainringed cantilever braked upside down fork monstrosities, I might buy it!

Nice find. Cannondale had some craziness going on in their R&D back then. They were the good old days. I don't miss those days, I still ride a 10 year old bike.:thumb:
