Overview
About this bike
Is XC domination all you can think about? Well, Cannondale's Flash 29'er Carbon Ultimate easily lives up to its ultimate name. It all starts with the Ballistec high-modulus carbon frame which features a stout BB30 bottom bracket, stiff 1.5 head tube and terrain-soothing Speed Save rear stays. Tied to the front is Cannondale's renowned Lefty Carbon XLR throwing down 90mm of travel with unprecedented precision. It keeps getting better. This dream ride is loaded with a dream spec, too. Simply amazing Enve carbon rims are laced to DT Swiss and Lefty hubs, SRAM XX puts everything into motion and also slows it all down and a Fizik saddle sits on a Flash carbon post. With such an unbelievable set up, get ready to put those thoughts into action!
