Cannondale Scalpel Hi-MOD Ultimate, Rød

Legitimately faster. Fundamentally lighter. Instantly better – the all-new Scalpel full suspension mountain bike is the best way to sharpen your performance. Progressive geometry and our new FlexPivot suspension give you unbreakable traction, incredible efficiency and unshakeable control over every part of the course. Blisteringly fast. Incredibly fun.

Crazy light, but who cares?
At just 1910 grams, complete with shock and hardware, the new Scalpel is legitimately one of the lightest full suspension XC race frames in the world. And that’s the least interesting thing about it.

It’s all about the suspension.
The new Scalpel has the best, most advanced suspension ever created for a cross-country mountain bike. The patented FlexPivot design delivers more grip and more speed – and weighs next to nothing.

FlexPivot
Incredibly durable. Incredibly flexible. These patented carbon plates create virtual Horst link pivots, while being stiffer and lighter than bearings. And not to mention, completely maintenance-free.

You want a competitive edge?
You need Scalpel. With 100mm of travel front and rear, the incredible Lefty Ocho fork and lightweight parts spec, the Scalpel is built to win everywhere, from the World Cup to your local loop.

Suspension for speed
The most advanced suspension ever made for XC. While others sacrifice performance to save weight, our patented FlexPivot suspension delivers both. Incredibly light, with unreal grip, acceleration and control, it lets you go flat-out everywhere. More speed. More fun.

Degrees of difference
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.

Stiff. Light. Fast.
At just over 1900 grams, complete with shock, the new Scalpel frame is one of the lightest full suspension MTB frames on the market. Incredible suspension, impeccable handling and feathery weight – it’s a recipe for victory.
