Expirience with the Cannondale Scalpel 1 Lefty

Cannondale Scalpel 1 Lefty Review The crew over at Cannondale can definitely be called quirky. With their latest Scalpel 1 Lefty, they stay true to form, merging aesthetic appeal with functional features. A standout on the frame has to be the ultra-thin, flexing chainstays. The weight of a bike is a central factor for riding pleasure on any kind of terrain. With 11,5 kg, the Downcountry-Bike von Cannondale is one of the lightest Downcountry-Bike on the market, which makes for great riding on singletrails. With its balanced handling, riding the Scalpel 1 Lefty feels really intuitive. The seating position is sporty. Despite this criticism, the coherent overall concept makes the Scalpel 1 Lefty to on long tours in light terrain a buying recommendation in the price range 9499 Euro range. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust.
