Hi all,

This is a (very) long shot, but I wondered if anyone knows a shop worth me calling to try and track down the above bike in a 52cm frame size.

I've tried the online stores and internet advertised shops but same result everywhere: out of stock, next stock due into UK in June.

Know any local Cannondale shops which might still have one of these?

Thanks.

    Plenty on there to try.

    Get the phone out, make a cuppa and do a Dave V Lately.

    Thanks for the link federalski.

    I have just found it myself as well, through looking at CSG - the UK distributor site.

    I've rung 20 or so shops so far, earlier today, but was hoping for a miraculous "oh yeah, Bob's Cycles down the road has got one"... !

    Cuppa's a good suggestion - more tea and calls tomorrow.

    Thanks.

    Had a wee look, this site suggests they have it. Some other sizes are listed as out of stock so I guess its up to date...

    It is a delicious looking thing in the flesh. Was drooling over one in an LBS at the weekend.

    (It's a 56 they have in the shop in case I got your hopes up. To a small but perfectly formed cyclist like me, it looked like a gorgeous gate)

    I don't actually get that ad although I've seen it a few times. Is the guy basically looking for an obscure album that his own crappy band put out in the 80s or something? Doing some ego-surfing as they call it on line...it's a slightly weak message.
    When a cyclist has a disagreement with a car; it's not who's right, it's who's left.

    Thanks federalski, guys, appreciate the help and comments.

    Had a mad day at work today, not able to make a single call, but tomorrow first thing I'll be on to West Brook Cycles with fingers and toes crossed.

    I'll let you know how I get on. In the meantime, don't hestitate to suggest other avenues and ideas.

    Thanks.

    It's a rip off/re-make of the 'JR Hartley' Yellow Pages advert from the 80s. I know this because I am old :(

    Thanks to you all and especially to federalski with the Westbrook Cycles tip.

    There was indeed a 52cm in stock at Westbrook Cycles in Team Replica colours.

    For anyone coming to this thread with a similar requirement, at time of posting they have a 52cm in black, and a 54 (not sure colour of that size).

    The guys at Westbrook cycles were really helpful and flexible, so I feel I got a good deal to boot.

    Thanks again.
