Cannondale Mountain Bike SL3 in size XL

I bought this and then was unable to ride it for some time due to ill-health (operation) then a motorcycle accident. Ridden recently approximately 10 miles on road, bike is too tall for me and is unfortunately way outside the returns period (about 4 years!).

Happy to let it go to a good home, offers around £160.00 (was £700 ish)

Collection from Wakefield please.

Am trying to get hold of my son to measure him!

Are you able to measure the lowest height of the seat and the crossbar height?

R.

Crossbar at lowest point (where you would hit if you departed the seat rapidly!) is 79cm approx and seat at lowest is 97cm, though a length could easily be lopped off the end of the seat tube to lower this further.

Perfect size for me and a bargain. Shame its so far away

Looks great! Too far from me unfortunately, but just wondered if it was a 29er or not?

maidenfan

Sorry, I should have said, it is a 29er, it is a nice bike, will be a bargain for someone I hope

dchwhite

Even more of a bargain and I'm even more disappointed you don't live closer! Glwts.

maidenfan

Cheers mate, how far are you?

Sadly too large for me too...I'm only 6 foot 1. If only it were a large....cracking bargain.

Here's a better dimensions chart for those all important measurements...hope it helps.

If that was directed my way - apologies, I missed it.

I'm down near Cambridge, so a bit far away, especially as I would need to have a go on it first before even thinking about it - I am a few inches off the minimum size the charts talk about, but I've been more comfortable on bigger bikes previously than on the ones that supposedly 'fit'. If you were round the corner I would probably ask if I could try it but as I am a mile or two down the road, I will just say I hope you get a sale soon

maidenfan

No probs, thanks for the kind comment
