I don't want to be seen as THE C'dale supporter but a little research on the Chap 11 situation will
ease your mind on that issue (facts, not inuendo) I agree workmanship may be an issue, but I have
also rarely seen C'dale turn down a warranty either in contrast to other manufacturers. I think the
same rule always applies - Ride it before you buy it...

Don't do it.....actually I've heard they ride pretty nice, but workmanship is highly suspect. C-Dale
(IIRC) is in the midst og being sold and who knows what the warranty situation will be. IMHO, I
think you're better off looking for a good quality used rig from
http://www.ridemonkey.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=29 and/or the classifieds on
http://mtbr.com/
Many people that are trying to sell stuff are hurting big time right now because it's not selling.
It a buyers market right now if ever there was one.
Besides I thought Wheelworld had some other good deals at their WH store. I'll be there tomorrow
(looking for some DH shorts) and will check out the bikes too. I plan on hitting SuperBlow and maybe
a few others...I check around. What size do you ride?
