2017 Cannondale Scalpel Si High Mod Carbon 1 27.5 inch Full Suspension

Season:2017

Brand:Cannondale

Code:VARC24116MJet Black

Cannondale have gone back to the drawing board to redesign the new Scalpel SI full suspension bike. With the changes in the XC courses they decided that the race bikes needed to be more suited to technical descents yet still maintain their lightweight feel. The result of this is the new Cannondale Scalpel SI and all out XC race bike. 

Insane Traction - Proprietary Ai offset drivetrain delivers super short chainstays for climb winning traction and agile handling, without sacrificing mud / tyre clearance or limiting you to a single ring set up

XC Agility meet all mountain stability - Outfront steering geometry gives you the best of both worlds. It's slack and stable on hetic descents, yet quick and nimble everywhere else.

The Lefty Fork

Forget the looks this forks is about more then just being different! Unbelievably rigid and precise, the lefty out corners, out handles and flat out rides circles around it's flexy XC competition. It's custom extra long fork offsets make the OutFront steering geometry possible

Explosive Stiffness

Nobody wants to waste their energy with flex. The Scalpel SI has super stiff raer stays which makes it incredibility fast and responsive. LockR locking axles help minimize loss of energy ensuring all your effort goes towards making the bike go faster.

Ultra Lightweight

System integrated cranks, forks and frame and zero pivot stays all add up to not much... not much meaning lightweight 

For the Cannondale Scalpel SI Hi-Mod 1 the frame gets an upgrade to the Hi Mod carbon which saves extra weight and improves stiffness. The bike goes 1 x 11 with a Shimano XTR / XT mix of components with Cannondales own HollowGram SI crank. Tubeless ready Carbon rims are laced to Cannondale's own hubs. 

At 10.3 kg the bike is certainly light and puts in a the ultimate full suspension XC bike bracket.

Full Suspension bikes have changed so much over the last few years. Travel has got biger / longer. Lockouts are available on most bikes and even some bikes have on board computers controlling what the suspension does.

So what do you go for? Well If you believe the press then you need at least 150mm travel if you do anymore than drop off a curb. In reality that's complete rubbish. So here's our attempt to help make things a little clearer for you

XC Bike - Normaly 100 / 120mm travel bike will be sufficient for a XC bike. You will want to consider what lockout the front and rear shock has fitted so you can lock the suspension to improve climbing speed

Trail Bike - 130mm to 150mm travel bike suitable for most trail centers around the UK including Cannock Chase. Consider that all trail centers contain a reasonable amount of climbing so again you may want to consider the lockout system so you can get up the climbs without bobing around too much whilst you get full use of the travel when you come down the other-side.

Enduro Bike - 150mm to 170mm travel bike. If you like taking air where possible, hitting rock gardens flat out and take in the odd downhill track then these bike would be best for you. Make sure you consider that most of the bikes in this category are predominately design to go down so weight will increase as will the bikes ride quality on anything flat and up hill
