About this product
This is a rare, vintage 1986 Cannondale ST500 road bike, manufactured in the USA. It features a bright yellow aluminum frame and is designed as a touring or race road bike.

Our take
The 1986 Cannondale ST500 is a truly unique vintage find, especially with its 'Made in USA' origin and vibrant bright yellow aluminum frame. The 700c wheel size is a plus, offering more modern tire options compared to older standards. Center-pull caliper brakes are period-appropriate and provide decent stopping power, though they differ from contemporary systems. As a vintage bike, you're embracing a classic ride experience. The limited specifications mean a lot of the original components remain a mystery, but the core frame and its rarity are the main draws here.
