About this product
This is a vintage 1990s Cannondale M800 complete mountain bike, all original and handmade in the USA. It features an aluminum frame, 26-inch wheels with clincher tires, and a purple finish. The bike is designed with a flat handlebar and utilizes indexed shifters for its derailleur gears. Notably, it has no suspension, offering a direct and responsive ride typical of mountain bikes from its era. This model represents a piece of cycling history from Cannondale.
Our take
Riding this vintage 1990s Cannondale M800 is a trip down memory lane. The aluminum frame feels incredibly stiff and responsive, a hallmark of Cannondale's 'Made In USA' bikes. For those who appreciate classic mountain biking, the flat handlebar and indexed shifters provide an authentic feel. The lack of suspension means you feel every bit of the trail, which can be exhilarating but also demanding. If you're looking for an all-original piece of cycling history to ride or collect, and prefer a rigid, direct connection to the trail, this M800 is a compelling option.
