About this product
The Cannondale XR800 is a 2001 cyclocross and gravel bike, featuring a 54cm aluminum frame and 700C wheels. It's equipped with Shimano 105 components, offering a 2x9 speed drivetrain. This blue bike has a rigid suspension, drop bar handlebars, and road bike shifters, making it a straightforward, no-frills option for multi-surface riding. It provides a classic design from its era.
Our take
Stepping back to 2001, the Cannondale XR800 offers a very accessible entry into cyclocross or gravel riding, especially at this price. The aluminum frame is durable, and the Shimano 105 2x9 groupset, while older, is a reliable workhorse. The 54cm frame is a common size, fitting a good range of riders. However, it's important to note the bike's age; it predates many modern advancements like disc brakes or internal cable routing. It's a no-suspension, rigid setup, which means a direct ride feel. If you value classic design and robust, proven components without needing the latest tech, this could be a great find.
