The New Cutting Edge
Welcome to the LAB
Just when you thought this screaming fast XC trail bike couldn't get any better, we sent it to finishing school at LAB71. The lightest Hi-MOD carbon frame, kitted out with a drool-worthy list of top-tier components and finished in a gallery-worthy paint scheme. Quantities are limited. Desire is not.
Features
FlexPivot
The key to Scalpel’s incredible suspension performance and light weight. These patented carbon plates create virtual Horst link pivots, while being stiffer and lighter than bearings. Incredibly durable. Incredibly flexible. And completely maintenance-free.
Proportional Response
Unlike the competition, who use the same suspension kinematic across all sizes, we customize the layout of our suspension for each one, so that every rider, from the smallest to the tallest, experiences the same brilliant suspension performance.
Lefty Ocho Carbon
The ultimate marathoner's fork. Proprietary needle bearing internals deliver unmatched smoothness and bump response across 120mm of travel. The unique, single-sided design offers unparalleled stiffness for steering precision and control, while a 50mm offset brings extra agility to the front end.
OutFront Steering Geometry
Lefty’s extra-long fork offset gives you more stability and confidence when things get rough, while keeping the steering XC-quick everywhere else.
HollowGram XC-27 SL Wheels
Our best carbon XC wheelset. Exceptionally light and incredibly fast. Hookless design and 27mm internal width for a strong, stable footprint. DT Swiss 240 EXP internals for instant engagement. Lifetime warranty for peace of mind.
STASH Kit
Everything you need for lighting fast trailside repairs. A Fabric 8-in-1 mini tool in a quick-draw holster, a Dynaplug tubeless plug kit, and your CO2 inflator, all stashed neatly under your waterbottle. Quick and easy.
Connected
An integrated wheel sensor delivers hyper accurate speed, route and distance info, registers your bike, reminds you of needed service and more, all through the free Cannondale App.
Two Waterbottles
Proper hydration, without the pack. Hallelujah!
