Cannondale Scalpel LAB71 Team Dual Suspension Mountain Bike
Scalpel Sharp, CFR Strong
Purebred for the podium, the Scalpel LAB71 Team is a full Cannondale Factory Racing replica that blends World Cup bloodlines with cutting-edge technology to dominate every cross-country course.
Cannondale Scalpel LAB71 Team — Full Carbon XC Race Bike with Shimano XTR Di2 and Fox Factory Suspension
The Scalpel LAB71 Team leaves nothing on the table. The LAB71 Series 0 ultralight carbon frame runs 120mm of travel through a FlexPivot chainstay and Proportional Response tuned suspension geometry, delivering the kind of snappy, precise handling that wins World Cup races. The Lefty Ocho 120 Carbon fork brings unmatched sensitivity and precision steering up front, while a custom-tuned Fox Float SL Factory EVOL rear shock keeps traction locked in and momentum building through technical terrain. Shimano XTR Di2 wireless electronic shifting handles 12-speed gear changes with instant, cable-free precision, and the SystemBar XC-One full carbon integrated bar and stem creates a sleek, internally routed cockpit purpose-built for cross-country speed. FSA KFX Team Edition carbon wheels on FSA X-900 hubs keep the rotating weight low and the handling sharp, and Schwalbe Rocket XC Pro tubeless-ready tyres give you fast rolling speed with reliable grip. The Fox Factory Transfer Neo wireless electronic dropper post rounds out a build that is battle-tested by Cannondale Factory Racing and proven on podiums worldwide.
