Cannondale Scalpel LAB71 Overview
Cannondale Scalpel LAB71 is a cross country mountain bike built with Cannondale’s Series 0 Carbon frame, 120mm travel, FlexPivot suspension, and Proportional Response Suspension and Geometry. The build pairs a Lefty Ocho 120 Carbon fork with a RockShox SIDLuxe Ultimate rear shock, both using TwistLoc Ultimate remote dual lockout for efficient control across XC riding and racing. Its SRAM XX SL Eagle AXS T-Type drivetrain gives the bike wireless electronic 1×12-speed shifting, while SRAM Level Ultimate Stealth 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled braking power.
The wheel package centers on DT Swiss XRC 1200 SPLINE carbon rims with a 30mm inner width and tubeless-ready construction. Maxxis Rekon Race WT and Maxxis Aspen WT 29×2.4″ tires add an XC-focused tire setup, with EXO Protection and tubeless-ready casings. The integrated SystemBar XC-One carbon cockpit, RockShox Reverb AXS seatpost, and Cannondale Wheel Sensor complete a build focused on cross country performance and clean integration.
