Scalpel HT Carbon 1 Cannondale 2024 Matte Black

The Purest Racing Style

This is the new generation of XC hardtail, designed to leave others behind on climbs, drop them on descents, and propel you straight to the podium.

Its Terrain

Racing.

What It’s Designed For

Speed, efficiency, performance.

Key Features

• Super lightweight and progressive carbon fiber frame / 100mm Lefty Ocho fork

• 12-speed SRAM XO Eagle AXS wireless transmission / SRAM Level TLM brakes

• HollowGram 25 carbon wheels / Cannondale C1 handlebar and seatpost / Cannondale wheel sensor

Confidence at the Limit

Don’t hesitate when others hit the brakes. The slack 66.5º head angle gives you the stability and control needed to dominate descents. Brake later. Turn decisively. Conquer descents.

Stay Centered

The Proportional Response chainstays and steep seat tube angle of the Scalpel HT keep you centered between the wheels for better traction and more powerful pedaling on climbs, with greater control on descents.

Lefty Advantage

The smoothest, most precise, and ultralight 110mm suspension fork available. Its longer offset adds extra agility to a super stable front end. Better control, more speed.

Master the Terrain

The flex zones in the chainstays work with the low seatstays to absorb vibrations and reduce impacts, increasing control, smoothing the terrain, and reducing fatigue. Ride more aggressively. Roll faster. Push your limits.
