This guy keeps reposting this ad to get top post in North Nj(alot of people do it in my area, I see the same bikes over and over):
Vintage Cannondale M500 Mountain Bike EXCELLENT! - $750 (West New York 07093)

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

He says it is a 1999 model that "cost me upwards of $2,000," but according to bikepedia it was worth $650 new. So 11 years later he wants $100 more; to be fair it looks in immaculate condition, but it is not worth the price point.

This is typical behavior from Craigslist mutants, obvious lies in the ad, and reposting over priced crap again and again every week or sooner to be in the front page for longest to find the eventual sucker.

Still looks new and rides like new.

then why are you posting a photo of the bike taken with a landsat? when it collided with a logging truck?

Would come with the pump needed for air shock.

then why doesn't it come with the pump needed for air shock? but at least this is a good sigm that the seller knows something about the bike. maybe.

Great tires.

it's not a car dude, tires aren't a 800 dollar investment.

LOADED/

what? how can a bike be "loaded?"
