I had a Caloi. It was Klein like. Thin aluminum, not sure if Gradian but again like Klein square lower rear stays. I picked it up at a swap. I didn’t bring it west when I moved. I gave it to the moving company driver.but wtf is a Caloi?
The logo I posted on page 1 is on a newly purchased bike.Maybe the Cannondale bike logo will stay the same and only the umbrella company logo is new?

I believe Caloi was a cheap Taiwan generic manufacturer like Giant. I worked on a few back in the day. They were as good as all those alu frames from Taiwan. GT, Heavy Tools etc..

Thats the model/color I had.OK, now I'm having purple ano bling cravings.
Yeah the cantilever dropout was supposed to be more forgiving. I'm not sure it was. Dropping to 90psi would do a lot more. And initially when their welded frames came out we had a fair number that were crooked as a dog's hind leg. I think this was a result of their heat-treating process. And you can't cold-set aluminum like a steel frame. So we sent a few back. Still, big step forward. I always wondered when the creaking Vitus alu bonded frame was going to explode beneath me...You're excused for my part - their OS tubed alu road frames were some of the buzziest frames I've ever been on. Granted we were all on 21-23 mm rubber at 110+ psi but yowch. Same wheelset on a steel Bianchi - oh sweet sweet relief.
I actually got to the point of dreading any bike where the rear dropouts were on an extension of the chainstay past the vertex of the rear triangle. . .
That reminded me that I had this sticker.Oh man… I’ve got a Head Shock sleeveless jersey with the huge guy on the back somewhere… lemmie find it…
