Overview
About this bike
Cannondale's Trigger 3 is an XC-fast, all-mountain-capable trail ride that hammers the climbs and descends like a demon. Cannondale built their reputation on aluminum frames, and their revolutionary SmartFormed tech delivers a low weight, quick pedal response, and unmatched ride quality. Up front, a 140mm Fox 32 Evolution fork leads the way, and out back a Fox DYAD shock boasts 140mm of rider-tunable, big-hit-swallowing suspension that can be adjusted by a bar-mounted lever to 85mm when it's time to ascend. Up or down, an X7/X9 drivetrain from SRAM has all the right gears, and features SRAM's trademark fast, snappy shifting. WTB Frequency rims and SRAM X9 hubs build into a light, smooth, and sturdy wheelset, and when they're paired with grippy WTB Wolverine tires, the Trigger is ready for whatever terrain lays ahead. And you will be too, with the X-Fusion Hilo dropper seatpost that lets you get you raise and lower your saddle in an instant for charging hard at the descents. You have to put a stop to the fun sometime, and Magura's MT4 hydraulic disc brakes make it easy to scrub speed. A selection of Cannondale's own light components and a racy WTB saddle are just as all-mountain as the rest of the bike.
