With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Cannondale Scalpel HT Carbon 2 XC Bike in Red

Season:2025

Brand:Cannondale

Code:CANC25231UCandyRED

The purest form of racing. A whole new breed of XC hardtail, purpose built to hurt em on the ups, drop em on the downs and propel you straight to the top step. Where it thrives between the tape, what it's built for speed, efficiency, and endurance.

No hesitant, fistful-of-brakes descending here. The ultra slack, 66.5° front end gives you the stability and control you need to really open it up on the downhills. Brake later. Corner harder. Pass on the descents.

Scalpel HT’s Proportional Response size-specific chainstays and steep seat angle keep you balanced between the wheels for better traction and power on the ups, and more confident control on the downs.

Sculpted flex zones in the chainstays partner with dropped seatstays to eat up the chatter from rowdy terrain, boosting control, smoothing the ride, minimizing fatigue. Go harder. Go faster. Go farther.

Features:

  • Progressive, superlight carbon frame / Lefty Ocho 100mm fork
  • Shimano XT 12-speed group / XT disc brakes
  • Cannondale C1 Carbon bar and post / Cannondale Wheel Sensor
  • Lefty Ocho - Simply the most advanced, smoothest, most precise-handling ultralight XC fork ever made. 100mm travel. Friction-free needle bearing internals. Unmatched control.
  • OutFront Steering - Lefty’s extra-long fork offset pairs with the slack head angle to give you more stability and confidence when things get rough, while keeping the steering XC-quick everywhere else.
  • Proportional Response Geometry - Full size-specific frame geometry, right down to the chainstay lengths. Keeps the rider centered between the wheels for incredible traction and handling.
  • Slack Head Tube Angle - Super slack 66.5° head angle delivers confidence and speed on steep descents that other XC bikes just can't match.
  • Connected - An integrated wheel sensor delivers hyper accurate speed, route and distance info, registers your bike, reminds you of service needs and more, all through the free Cannondale App.
  • Convertible Cable Stops - Internal cable routing system lets you run full housing for weather-proof reliability, or interrupted housing for maximum weight savings.
  • Lead with Lefty - 100mm of the smoothest, most precise-handling ultralight front suspension out there. Extra- long fork offset brings extra agility to the super stable front end. Better control, more speed.
