Cannondale Scalpel 2 Dual Suspension Carbon Mountain Bike 2024

The Cannondale Scalpel 2 Dual Suspension Carbon Mountain Bike 2024 delivers raw speed and razor-sharp control for riders who thrive on fast lines and split-second decisions. Built for cross-country racers and high-speed trail hunters, it brings together precise geometry, responsive suspension, and lightweight components to keep the pace high and the ride aggressive.

Carbon construction keeps the frame stiff under pressure and light on the climbs, while FlexPivot suspension technology allows for a smooth, efficient 120mm of travel. The Scalpel 2 holds traction over loose sections and reacts instantly to sudden changes in direction, making it a solid choice for riders chasing podiums or personal bests.

The SRAM GX Eagle AXS wireless 12-speed drivetrain shifts instantly and without fuss, even under load. Clean cabling keeps the cockpit tidy and reduces distractions. A TwistLoc remote lets riders lock out both front and rear RockShox SID Select+ suspension in a single motion, saving energy on long climbs or flat-out sprints.

The HollowGram XC-S 27 carbon wheels roll fast and hold their line with confidence. Lightweight but tough, they give the Scalpel 2 that edge needed to cut through technical courses at speed. Braking comes from SRAM Level Bronze Stealth units, offering control without excess weight. A Fox Transfer SL dropper post rounds out the build, adding quick height adjustment when the course gets steep or loose.

Cross-country racers, marathon riders, and fast trail chargers will find the Cannondale Scalpel 2 meets the demands of speed, efficiency, and control. It rewards aggressive riding and thrives under pressure.
