Built up with Stan’s NoTunes Crest S1 tubeless ready rims and a pair of Maxxis Race tires, the connection to the trail is secure and dependable. Be prepared to roll smooth and get every bit of traction each pedal stroke deserves.
The Cannondale Scalpel Carbon SE 2 comes with the DownLow dropper post and remote system. The RockShox SIDLuxe Select+ rear shock for added suspension in the rought stuff without compromising performance when all you need is flat out speed.
