Far from a "Crock" they couldn't make any money with all the cheap bastereds here in the US ... Everyone cries that they want USA made products but when it comes down to pay for them they cheap out and say they cost to much ... Get over it , your just gonna go buy a Specialized , Giant ,Pivot , Titus Trek , jamis , Gt or long list of other overseas made bikes so get over yourselves ....

The bike,nothing else to say,and better ride than talk!!!!!

[rickcanton]

Got ya so the Made in the USA thing is really a none issue considering you went with a Taiwan made bike at the end ? Bottom line the new Cannondales are as good if not better then they used to be... END OF STORY... Enjoy your Reign its a pretty nice bike with the exception of its weight but over all nice choice! Ride on Bro!

well i did get a new ride and its not a cdale. after lots of test riding i decided that the Moto was just too medioker and ended up with a Giant Reign X0. all the tech jargin in the world wont sway me from my opinion that pacific cycles has tarnished the Cannondale name. dont get me wrong cdale has some of the best customer service in the world but i am just not impressed with the current line up. maybe i'll try again in 4 yrs when its time to trade in the Giant.

CONT

The RST Forks you're talkin about Feel plush ,smooth and stiff due to a design team composed of Cannondale and RST engineers that came together do make these RST Deuce 1.5 Air / f4 /coil /f5 and also ofed on other models for CANNONDALE ONLY! That's right i 1.5 fork ! They are far better then a Dart ! Don't knock things if you haven't put your hands on them and have a true sense of what's what .Trade in that Prophet for an RZ it's just a BETTER bike!

I just got my new RZ140 ONE a couple weeks ago and it's the nicest bike I've owned in a while ! Just FYI my Ellsworth Moment just took the back seat and became my B Bike... As far as the rest of the CD line The Flash frames both alloy and carbon are SICK! the new Trail SL Frames are super nice and look great ! The welds are smooth unlike most of the competitors!

once again check the new lineup online and prepare yourself for some disappoinment. lower end duel sus bikes went from to decent beginner machines to RST crap and the price even went up. i own a prophet that i have loved for 3 yrs now. i'm just kinda bummed at the commercial move...
