Geometry
Fast, light, and thrilling, the Scalpel Carbon 2 is a race-ready XC machine built for riders who want to blur the trail around them on Victoria's best cross-country and marathon courses.
Lightweight Carbon XC Race Bike with Shimano XT Di2 and DT Swiss Carbon Wheels
The Scalpel Carbon 2 delivers serious cross-country speed in a package that is equally at home on Victorian XC race courses and fast technical singletrack. The lightweight carbon frame runs 120mm of travel through a FlexPivot chainstay with Proportional Response tuned suspension and geometry, keeping the ride snappy, precise, and efficient through every pedal stroke. A RockShox SID Select+ RL fork with 120mm of DebonAir travel and TwistLoc Ultimate remote dual lockout leads up front with race-proven performance, while the RockShox SIDLuxe Select+ rear shock with two-position mode adjust keeps traction consistent through variable trail conditions. Shimano XT Di2 wireless electronic 12-speed shifting cracks off precise, instant gear changes under pressure without the need for cable adjustments, and Shimano XT M8220 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes with 180/160mm rotors deliver reliable, powerful stopping on fast descents. DT Swiss XRC 1900 Spline carbon wheels with 30mm inner width and hookless tubeless construction keep the rotating weight low and the handling sharp, rolling on Schwalbe Rocket XC Pro tubeless-ready tyres for fast, efficient performance on hardpack and mixed Australian trail surfaces. The Cannondale 1 carbon flat bar, C1 Conceal stem, and DownLow internal dropper post round out a clean, race-focused build that is ready to lay down serious XC speed wherever you ride.
