Staged Travel
The RZ’s modified single pivot design is the epitome of sophisticated simplicity, offering optimal suspension response throughout the travel. It starts ultra plush, transitions to a predictable linear feel through the middle, then ramps up at the end for a bottomless feel.
Cannondale Aluminum Expertise
The RZ showcases decades of aluminum mastery. SmartFormed tubes, double-pass smooth welds and the 3D forged OPI (One Piece Integration) BackboneM/strong> BB/main pivot/ seat-tube structure deliver maximum strength with minimal weight.
Superb Handling
The perfect mix of stable and racy, the RZ’s geometry lets you feel at home and in control no matter what the mountain throws your way. Truly at its best when System Integrated with the unbeatable Lefty fork.
