About this bike
Cannondale's Scalpel is as sharp and precise as its namesake, ready to take your XC rides to the next level! Cannondale pored over every detail to make it one of the lightest full-suspension 29ers in existence with a super stiff and efficient Ballistec HI-MOD carbon frame, oversize BB30 bottom bracket, and a rear through-axle. A RockShox Monarch rear shock with 100mm of travel lets you muscle through techy obstacles on the trail without sacrificing speed and power. The 1.5-inch headtube is paired with Cannondale's Lefty PBR fork for razor-sharp handling and pinpoint line selection. Tubeless-ready Stan's rims are matched with Schwalbe's Racing Ralph tires for sure-footed traction on the most demanding courses. And, a 20-speed SRAM drivetrain has the gears you need whether the trail is cruising up or flying back down. Scrubbing speed is always easy with Magura's hydraulic disc brakes at your command. Cannondale's excellent components are the icing on the cake, with low weight and superior ergonomics for total XC domination.
