Cracked Cannondale Track Frame
August 30, 2008 – 11:04 pmMy bike frame cracked a few months ago and I’ve been unable to ride because of it. Cannondale has - as they are required to do - agreed to replace my bike frame since it is under a lifetime warranty. Considering I live in Israel, it’s quite nice of them to ship it over as the shipping costs would be half the cost of the frame itself. I guess this is one of the advantages of working through the Tel Aviv Cannondale dealer, DAA.
DAA has been great and extremely helpful. My new frame should arrive on September 9. I’m not sure if they’ll be sending the exact track frame that I have or if it will be another model. The new track frame from Cannondale is the poorly monikered Cannondale Capo. It’s an attractive enough and simple enough design but the name leaves something to be desired.
For the curious, here are some photos of the crack in the frame:
