          The Purest Form of Racing

          A ripping fast, progressive XC Hardtail, purpose built to hurt ‘em on the ups, drop ‘em on the downs and propel you straight to the top step.

          Model Description

          Zero Fat, Full-on Fury. This is speed stripped down to its essence—the Scalpel HT 3 leaves nothing to chance. Its carbon frame launches forward with unbridled force, Shimano Deore shifting strikes with crisp efficiency, the RockShox Recon Silver fork traces any trail with unshakable traction, and the 29-inch wheels keep momentum high. Roll fast, roll long.

          What it's for

          High speed XC and Marathon racing. Chasing podiums and PRs.

          Highlights

          • Lightweight carbon frame with progressive, size-specific XC geometry
          • Deore M6100 – sharp, reliable shifting from Shimano’s workhorse 12-speed group
          • RockShox Recon Silver RL 110mm fork with remote lock. Proven race performance
          • Solid all-conditions braking from 4-piston Shimano MT400 hydraulic discs
          • WTB ST i25 rims with Maxxis Rekon Race/Aspen Race WT tires
          • RaceFace Ride 2-bolt seatpost. Light, simple, durable

          The purest form of racing

          Confidence on edge

          More Info

          No hesitant, fistful-of-brakes descending here. The ultra slack, 66.5° front end gives you the stability and control you need to really open it up on the downhills. Brake later. Corner harder. Pass on the descents.

          Stay centered

          More Info

          Scalpel HT’s Proportional Response size-specific chainstays and steep seat angle keep you balanced between the wheels for better traction and power on the ups, and more confident control on the downs.

          Features

          Drop the chatter
          Sculpted flex zones in the chainstays partner with dropped seatstays to eat up the chatter from rowdy terrain, boosting control, smoothing the ride, minimizing fatigue. Go harder. Go faster. Go farther.
