You'll be surprised. The guy is a billionare. He loves quads. He is empolying same people to build the quad same parts he is just the CEO now.Yep it went up on the block startin for 25 mil. he did'nt say what the final bid was...Yes they will have all parts and motors back up...The company is running strong with the back of a billionare.:D

Guess what too. I traded off my LSR a arms for gibson put on a arens stem too and a HMF pipe..All in one night.:eek: getting it how I want it if I am spendin this type of cash ya know. oooooh yeah did you know elka has quad rates....I got them too. but for a discount.:eek2: they are awsome.

lol thats great, Now we just gotta get one before the prices go back up. Does a cannondale axle work on a 400ex? I know the front ends do and they have the same bolt paters but i'm not sure about the axle. But i'm assuming it is because they use the honda style bolt pattern on the axle I thought so I was thinking it would be a 400ex axle.


lol, I some how hope that post makes sence.:huh

Thats good. You know whats werid I didnt see a single thing in my 'ATV Action' about C-Dale shutdown or any problems, I saw reviews on C-Dale and stuff about Nacs C-Dale team getting ready for next year... Nothing about them going out of business? Werid... Maybe something in next months...

Actually they were out of business which they filed for bankrupcy (Pretty Sure). Otherwise they wouldn't have to sell.

I hope this is true information! If so, it is really great to hear Cannondale is back and running....And bought by an ATV fan :D . Let us know if you get any updates.

To bad I don't have the money right now to get a C-dale while they're cheap :o .

I think someone has some miss information here. They are sending out parts again, yes. But it's one guy in shipping just getting out the stuff they have in stock. The auction is in March.

Yea call the dude at K&K he will tell you all about if you are interested.

I'll post pics of my dale as soon as I get it.

I still have to pick it up. It's mine don't get me wrong lol but I got to pick it up from Mass. and I am in Ohio.

They have a bunch of them built just like that or the lone star and I just got the lone star one and modded it to how I like it thats why the price went up so much.

Yeha K&K can tell you anything they want, but nobody bought C-Dale YET. The Auction is March 22 I believe. It is going to start in the 58 mill range. 33million or so is to pay off the debt and the 25 million is for c-dale assets. There have only been rumors so far. The strongest one being RAD Co., but it is all rumors. K&K is just feeding you sh*T to make you buy the c-dale.

O I flat out told him I did'nt care if they where shutting down.I wanted that dale

Geeze harsh :(

I also heard the same thing from a dealer expo dude. He said they had not been boughten but SOMEONE WILL BUY THEM.

Now trust that they will, they will come back....I hear 2 diffrent storys and another from a polaris dealer that sounds the same as the K&K dude.

i saw the dale rookiex is talking about. Some times you don't see all of thier cannondales because they are in back. They can only put so many quads in the show room.

rookiex
02-26-2003, 07:24 PM
It's nice too!

I added a few things on my own tho. had some extra cash.

James70214
02-26-2003, 07:39 PM
Didn't mean to sound harsh!! I totally agree someone will buy c-dale. That is why I bought a 2nd one. I have total confidence. It is just too good of a product to not be manufactured anymore. We will have to wait untill the end of March ntill we know the true fate.

rookiex
02-26-2003, 07:40 PM
Tell me james just how nice is the dale!

jcv400ex
02-26-2003, 07:52 PM
Yeah, the dealers don't know...heck, they didn't even call us to tell us they went belly up! The auction is on March 20th.....then and only then will we know the TRUE owner of Cannondale.....:ermm:

Sure, you are going to have alot better chance selling a R in the market today, but that is not to say that C-Dale will be the same with the years to come. I think it would be worth the chance tho.

:huh Noway a 88 275r with stock shocks is worth more than a dale..... Sell the R and pick yourself up a Dale. You'll never look back...
