Scalpel 3 Tiger Shark

Season:2024

Brand:Cannondale

Code:C24454UTIGShark

The New Cutting Edge. This is the ultimate XC race bike. Ground-breaking suspension, aggressive geometry and feathery weight let you go full gas from the gun.

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

Scalpel’s progressive geometry has evolved even further – it has 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.

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.

Lefty Ocho is simply the most advanced, smoothest, most precise-handling ultralight fork ever made. Its one-of-a-kind design lets you float through the chop and slice through the chunder like nothing else.

Features:

  • Lightweight carbon FlexPivot frame / Lefty Ocho fork / Integrated Cannondale App connectivity
  • Shimano XT/SLX 12-speed shifting / HollowGram crank
  • Shimano Deore hydraulic disk brakes / Stan's NoTubes Crest S1 tubeless-ready rims
