  1. Any Lefty fork riders out there?
    I just got an '06 Cannondale Prophet 600 with a Lefty fork... works
    great, super smooth, but the front wheel seems like it has some rolling
    resistance from the bushing that holds it in place. Even with the wheel
    off the bike and fork, the wheel has some resistance on the bolt. Also,
    it squeaks like a trapped rat! I had an entirely different Prophet a
    few weeks ago (same model, larger size) that did the same thing...
    anybody out there had this problem?

  2. Lefty righty if you can't stand the sound,back to where you got it
    from. Now tell them to get it righty so your Lefty can be quite in day
    or nighty.

    Sorry I can;t help, but I just want to say that I hate you for having a
    Cannondale even if it does make odd noises. I want one, but have no
    money to buy one.

    Drop the bike back to a LBS that is a cannondale dealer, they should be
    able to fix it for you.
