Cannondale Scalpel HT Carbon 3

Cannondale Scalpel HT Carbon 3

The Purest Form of Racing
A ripping fast, progressive XC Hardtail, purpose built to hurt ‘em on the ups, drop ‘em on the downs and propel you straight to the top step.

Model Description
Zero Fat, Full-on Fury. This is speed stripped down to its essence—the Scalpel HT 3 leaves nothing to chance. Its carbon frame launches forward with unbridled force, Shimano Deore shifting strikes with crisp efficiency, the RockShox Recon Silver fork traces any trail with unshakable traction, and the 29-inch wheels keep momentum high. Roll fast, roll long.

What it's for
High speed XC and Marathon racing. Chasing podiums and PRs.

Highlights
  • Lightweight carbon frame with progressive, size-specific XC geometry
  • Deore M6100 – sharp, reliable shifting from Shimano’s workhorse 12-speed group
  • RockShox Recon Silver RL 110mm fork with remote lock. Proven race performance
  • Solid all-conditions braking from 4-piston Shimano MT400 hydraulic discs
  • WTB ST i25 rims with Maxxis Rekon Race/Aspen Race WT tires
  • RaceFace Ride 2-bolt seatpost. Light, simple, durable
