Ulli's Bike

    Top    


Here is my bike: a '03 Cannondale 700 with the Lefty ELO Fork.
Actually this fork was the main reason to choose this bike, and I don't regret my decision. This fork is so stiff, its amazing. The electronic lockout system is working great, and I use it quite a lot, even for short uphill sections. With the rear I am not too happy yet, too much flex in the locked-out mode, but I'm working on that.

BTW: My new do-it-yourself Bike-Lamp report is ready
