Complete rubbish !
I bought a contro 4 about 2 years ago, within days the brakes were squealing horrendously, after numerous visits to the shop I purchased it from (a fairly long trip), and having to endure accusations of it being my fault, the calipers were replaced and upgraded under warranty, they'd been leaking from day 1, putting me at great risk. This took 12 months to achieve, always trying to blame me. In the meantime, the bottom bracket had collapsed, and replaced under warranty straight away, fair enough, but with one of a totally inappropriate colour, I refused to accept my machine until it was changed again. After 15 months, the spokes in the rear wheel started snapping, and after the 7th I contacted Evan's cycles and Cannondale to see if there was any issues, I was told no, and they both recommended a complete rebuild of the wheel at my expense. I own, and have owned, many quality cycles, and none have ever caused me anything like this level of grief, its understandable for a £99 bouncer from Argos, but this is supposed to be a quality manufacturer, this machine had an RRP of over £800, the build quality and the components used have shamed the good name of cannondale, as has the company's"couldnt care less" attitude, never again....
