The Jekyll 1 has always been a pioneer in the mountain biking world. At this point, it is the youngest representative of the dynasty. With a low damper and a high-pivot rear end, the Americans once again demonstrate their innovative strength. Especially in extremely steep terrain, this combination makes for smooth handling. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the Jekyll 1, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. If you look at the frame as the heart of a bike, then Cannondale has done everything right. The Carbon frame leaves a very presentable impression. On the downhill, however, the Enduro of Cannondale is left in the dust by its competitors. But let´s not forget: The geometry shows the know-how of the Cannondale engineers. For 6499 Euro , other manufacturers deliver geometries with less potential. With 25 years the warranty is another neat feature.
