| Hunting for seconds is the only thing that counts? The heart rate is monitored nearly every time and the individual training concept is always on mind? Victories are everything? That's not the time for compromises! It's time for the Cannondale scalpel 3! A bike without compromises with an extraordinary stiffness and strength to weight ratio which is confirmed by independend testers. 1.580 grams for a painted frameset including rear shock are a mark that has to be beaten by all other competitors. Cannondale reached that targed by implementing several innovative technics and materials in their concept. Zero Pivot is a description of a special construction that needs no bearings, no bushings, nothing to add weight or cause play, just chain stays and seat stays engineered to flex along a given path, providing 80 mm of plush, progressive travel. Scalpel achieves unheard of levels of light weight and efficiency by System Integration design. Cannondale craft components to work together, like the Lefty fork and Si Stem/Steerer, or the Si/SL Hollowgram crankset with the BB30 system. Lighter and stiffer than aluminum, more dent resistant than steel,Ballistec carbon can shake off rock strikes and impacts that would destroy Scalpel's flimsy competition. Once again the Scalpel frame weighs just 1580 grams complete with shock! Tube2Tube Construction is a time intensive and expensive construction procedure which is used by Cannondale to create every tube individually and to arange the unidirectional fibers exactly. This results in increased stiffness and further reduced weight. Chainstays and the bottom bracket area are made of one piece to increase stability at the intersection between both. The BB 30 bottom bracket and the oversized downtube allow a nearly 1 by 1 transmission of power into acceleration. Silky smooth travel in a lightweight design, the Monarch floats through bumps, turning rugged trails into tire-gripping velvet. The chassis is lean while maintaining the durability and adjustability needed to bite off huge chunks of epic cross country and burly trail action. Combining a redesigned Solo Air spring with updated damping controls, Monarch has the perfect balance of bump performance and efficiency.
