I have been looking for a No Cal Cannondale dealer who stocks the 2007 CAAD9 Optimo 2road bike , and have not found one yet near me in Chico, CA. In fact, several of the shops I called say they can order one but do not stock any Cannondale road bikes. Is this normal practice for Cannondale dealers not to stock their road offerings?
Can anyone name a good No Cal Cannondale dealer who I could deal with for on 07' CAAD9 Optimo 2 bike who might actually have one in stock to look at? Also, is there any type of Cannondale trade in deal where I could trade a used road frameset or bike for a discount on the purchase of a CAAD9 frameset only, not the complete bike?

I think City Bicycle Works in Sacramento had a CAAD9 bike (916)447-2453.
You might also try Mike's Bike's in Sacramento, they may have one at one of their other stores and can transfer it over (916) 446-BIKE.
In addition to Mike's Bikes in Sacramento, you might want to call Davis Wheel Works (in Davis of course). I was there last week. I saw several Synapses, CAAD9s and a System Six. I don't recall the sizes unfortunately.

Sports Basement in Sunnyvale, CA had a CAAD9 Optimo 2 config in 54cm and jet black. It was more than a week ago, so I don't know if they still have it.

REI stocks Cannondales. The closest one to you is probably the Roseville store.

REI stocks Cannondales? Yuck. Do they know what the heck they are doing?

Ew, I wouldn't buy from REI either. If you have a Silicon Valley Triathlon Club membership (www.svtriclub.org), you can get a discount at Mike's Bikes or Sports Basement. Happy shopping :)

Depends on which REI... I think at some of them, they have just as good mechanics as anywhere else. Worth checking it out...
the rei in Sacramento had a few of scratched 07 cannondales at full price. and they had a few 06 cannondales that said new 07 models. and nobody in the store knew what was going on. roseville has a few, but same deal.
i think mikes and city are the best around, and i know mikes can order anything.
