WOW, Rely?

So, yesterday was "First Friday" so i decided to ride my bike to Railroad square for the monthly art gallery hop. While I was there I meet this guy named Keith. He was riding with a group of people i know that were doing a gallery hop / pub crawl. I was showing off my Delta V and going on and on about how much I like this frame style and what not and he tells me that he has a "Killer V" frame just sitting around in his garage collecting dust. We talk for a while about Cannondale headshok's and Lefty's He tells me that he has some experience in repairing these and would be up for helping me out teaching me what he knows,  we exchange info (we both work at the University) and off the group go's.

So, the next day i call him up and i go over to his house, turns out this dude is a relay cool cat, he into home brewing and make some rely good pilsner. We hang out for a wile and he shows me his stable of 29'ers and all the Old stuff he just has laying around. Long story short, I wind up walking out of this dudes house with a 19.5 inch Killer V 900 HT frame, three wheels and a little plastic bag of scrap cannondale headshok parts.

I OWE KEITH BIG TIME!!!!!!!

When it rains it pores! I couldn't believe my good fortune. It was only a week ago that I found a Super V 700 SX

    It came with the CODA wheel set that has the old 4 hole disk mounts, a Lefty DLR (2000) and a Fox Air Vanilla FLOAT. XT rear derailleur, LX Front. LX shifters. A 9 speed cassette, CODA stem and handle bars. My plan was to clean and fix up all the parts from this bike and use them to build up the Delta V 700.

Well NOW I have this Killer V frame. Now when i got the killer V frame Keith said it was a small. I was like "COOL, i can use it to build up a bike for my 11 year old nephew" Well it turns out that this Killer V frame is 19.5 inches from the middle of the bottom bracket to the set post. The same size as my Delta V. the only thing different between these frames are the Dropouts.

Above is the Delta V with the dropouts that extend out past the point that the seat stays and the chine stays meet. and below are the dropouts on the Killer V 900 HT frame:

Now had this frame had disk brake mounts on it I'd had shit my britches. but as i understand it only a few of the "F" bikes of the 1999/2000 years had that. BUT WHAT EVER! this frame is SO COOL!. I like the Cannondale LOGO:

 the paint job is a gloss black and now im thinking, 

1. The Delta V is 100% functional.
2. The Delta V is also stock.with the fork being original and matching the frames paint job.
3. The Lefty DLR and parts i am taking off the Super V would match the Killer V's paint job better.

So, now i have decided to leave the classic Delta V stock and change focus from upgrading the Delta to now build up the Killer V with the 3X9 and the Lefty DLR.

So, now I get to learn how to repair the Lefty DLE 2000 and the old "HeadShok".
