What an ugly piece of crap! Lightest 29er on the planet!?!? I think not! My 2011 stumpjumper S-Works size large frame came in at 17.89 pounds. I would never spend money on that crap!
Cool and all, but you have to stay on the road with the bike or you'll be sending the fork back to Cannondale for a month during the race season - perhaps more than once.
ugh cannondale... lefty fork=unstable suspension: bad idea. same carbon all the way down to the seat tube: been done (unsuccessfully)=loss of traction: bad idea. faulty frames the snap way to easily: thats cannondale for ya. worst bikes on the planet.
@xXheadmanXx you're wrong.I have owned 2 cannondale's with lefties in my past year.Started with F2 caffeine(2009) -> and this year F3(after my F2 stolen)
And to be honest,it's stable and lightweight(unless you have a balance problem.)So far I love this lefty(easy to adjust lockout and rebound system).
And for loss of traction, Change the tires! Tires affect traction.Not cannondale frame or lefty.So please think before you talk.
And if snap or break, 5 years frame warranty.not other offer this
@Dinraxxx actually what i meant was that there wasn't a loss of traction with the full carbon but rather a loss of extra traction that it often (but not always) put into bikes. and its actually not stable because if you hit a massive rock from the left side, it would respond dramatically different from if you were to hit it on the right side. it may even cause the fork to snap if put under enough pressure. although it may still be unlikely, its still way more possible than with a dual sided fork
@DaveAtYouBoob I know total bullshit. This bike costs over 5 grand and it doesen't even come with top of the line parts. It has a x9 front derailleur and x.0 rear derailleur and shifters. For that kind of money it should have all XX parts on the bike.
21 pounds? WTF? Specialized Stumpjumper Hardtail S-Works 29er 2011 is 18.69 pounds and scott's 949er is around the same! lightest 29er hardtail on theplanet? not a chance!
@kitatelababy .... excuse me, I don't know where you've see this for SPE weight but I think that's not possible the s-works from Burry stander factory racer is @ 20,35lbs in 17,5" size :
@marclavre12222 if you read that in bikeradar on the pro bike:burry stander's... article, remember it is an article wrote in May the 20th and that in the middle of the summer they switched to the 2011 models... try searching for the 2011 model that him, juroslav, and sometimes todd ride.. the one with the 1400 gr rims you know? and not the 2010 one...
notice that the one in the article you saw is quite different than the one he rode when he finished thrird in the world championships.. the new one has an inteligent brain valve for 29er as well and has a 930 gr carbon fact frame it's super stiff and fast you should try it (Y)

@Yahaa69 it sets it off balance bc the componants are on the right so it would be offset

@ultimatemtb Thanks for the Info....Just wondering why componants are place on right side and not on the left?
Yahaa69 1 year ago
@Yahaa69 well because more people are rightys so its just that much more less confusing to work on i think
ultimatemtb 1 year ago
@Yahaa69 Because disc brakes always mount on the left, because the drivetrain is generally mounted on the right.
