About the Upgrade - Background
Cannondale 432cc motors built between March 2001 and May 2003 were manufactured with
seven defects which pose a reliability and/or safety hazard. After purchasing the remaining
inventory of Cannondale Motorsports, ATK began the work of re-engineering motor components
to create solutions to overcome these defects. Attempts were made to inform owners about
the potential destructive nature of the defects. Service bulletins were issued instructing that if
the ATK Reliability Upgrade is applied to the motor before a failure, the cost of repair is
significantly less than the cost to overhaul a motor destroyed by the "grenade effect" of the failure.
ATK Reliability Upgrade is Offered to All Owners
