Jekyll 27.5
This precision mountain bike from Cannondale is perfect for enduro artists, those who can take full advantage of its Gemini dual-travel and effortless, poppy quickness in their quest for the podium.
Gemini
Gemini shock absorbers
Co-developed by Cannondale and Fox Shox, the Gemini system adds different ride modes to the Fox Float X and DPS shock absorbers. Hustle mode shortens suspension travel and increases spring rate for a snappier, more responsive feel – perfect for tight turns and challenging climbs. Flow mode brings you back the full travel of Fox suspension for exhilarating downhill mountain biking.
· 165 mm travel in full mode (Flow). 130 mm travel in short mode (Hustle).
· Works by limiting air-spring volume rather than increasing compression damping, so the shock stays fully active in short-travel mode for better suspension and traction.
· Added feature on normal Fox shocks – not a one-off proprietary shock.
· Normal shock set-up and function – all Fox performance features and settings are maintained.
· All shock adjustment features may be activated in both Hustle and Flow modes.
· As well as being enhanced with the Gemini system, all Fox shocks are custom-tuned for the Jekyll.

BallisTec carbon/SmartForm alloy construction
Our BallisTec carbon construction delivers ultra-light frames of exceptional strength and stiffness. The alloy versions use our sophisticated SmartForm aluminum construction – the result of over 30 years of alloy MTB expertise.
Water bottle mount
Keeps hydration at arm's reach and safe from the dirt spray.
Clean cable management
Your cabling as you want it. Interchangeable in-head tube cable guides secure the housing, supporting every possible cable configuration.
Full-on full carbon link
Our full carbon shock link is lighter and stiffer than alloy. Available on all models.
Future proof
Di2 ready. An internal battery mount keeps things clean and clear for internal dropper post compatibility.

LockR
Our exclusive thru-axle pivot offers a more-secure link between swing arm and the main frame for greater responsiveness and stability as you ride. No twist, flex or special tools required.
Neutral braking
Dialed frame kinematics ensure active suspension, holding the rider in a neutral position when braking for unmatched control.
