It took me over 5 years to find and acquire this 56cm 1992 Cannondale Track Glacier Blue frame and fork, in its size and condition, and then another full year after that to amass the right parts to perform this build - and capture it all on film! The unwavering goal from the beginning was to stay faithful and period correct to its vintage, while keeping the quality cranked all the way up.
But this is what it's all about! My interests diversify beyond just cars and I hope to steadily share them with you. Many of the same resourcefulness and dedication cross over from the car world into an even more pressure cooked fashion. In addition to the frame being hard to find, the Suntour groupset is circa the mid-80's and in NOS or near NOS condition! These are all things that can't be picked off the shelf and must be slowly sourced and collected first.
In my eyes, the stripped down simplicity and the geometry of a proper Track bike is the most beautiful... and the original Cannondale Track sits as the consummate icon.
