This is the ultimate XC race bike. Ground-breaking suspension, aggressive geometry and feathery weight let you go full gas from the gun. Grip where others slip. Attack where others lack. Dominate where others hesitate. Welcome to the new school.
At just over 1900 grams, complete with shock, the new Cannondale Scalpel frame is one of the absolute lightest dual suspension MTB frames
ever made. Incredible suspension, impeccable handling and feathery weight – it’s a recipe for victory.
Scalpel’s progressive geometry has evolved even further – Cannondale have a full degree and a half slacker headtube angle, one degree
steeper seat tube angle – creating an XC bike that’s more aggressive, lightning-fast, fun and stable everywhere, from the World Cup to your local loop.
The most advanced suspension ever made for XC. While others sacrifice performance to save weight, Cannondale's patented FlexPivot
suspension delivers both. Incredibly light, with unreal grip, acceleration and control, it lets you go flat-out everywhere. More speed. More fun.
