bigquotesWe took the new rigs up to the rummest spot we knew, they handled it like a day out at Blackpool. With ease and finesse, the new frame configuration feels better the faster it's ridden.—50to01

 Bike looks unreal... Riders ain't bad either. Silent & Smooth.

 Funny how one of the fastest racers on the planet spends his time jibbing about and Kade who must be one of the best jibbers in the planet spends half his time racing. A joy to watch both of them either way.

 Yup Cannondale has it going on. That bike looks mint and the lads properly flying it showcases. Single and dual crown capable? Going to be giving up the last kidney left for this one.

 interesting to see it being ridden with both single and dual crown forks.

i actually saw one in person at the bike park here over the weekend (Blue Mt - Pennsyltucky)

 I loved how they showed it being ridden with both single and dual crown forks. I feel like this will open it up to a larger spectrum of riders.

 I have never said this before: this next Cannondale looks rad! ;

The current Fury is my favorite bike of all time, I hope these have a mini-fury thing going for them.

 The slow motion is really really cool (from the perspective of a low-skilled rider).

 @Staktup: i kinda get the idea, but Josh was no second tier rider, he singlehandedly won the world cup, so much natural talent and it just got wasted, it is kind of sad for me to see him there, from a Senior position in the Syndicate on Santacruz to Cannondale appearing on Tiktoklike videos.

He didnt have to sacrifice so much imo, there are other companies doing a better job at portraying the style of riding he wants to do, Commencal for example. And with a rider of his caliber he could be sponsored by any company he wants.

 @Narro2: perhaps they pay top dollar and let him just do his thing

 'cmon Cannondale, are you guys high on hair dye? Battleship grey? and whats going on with the downtube?
  • 3 0
 That is covering the shock body. It is basically enclosed in the downtube.

 @Austink: not quite, it seems to be coming through the bottom

 @quesoquesoqueso: yeah I think there is some sticking out. I have seen the leaked product page photos. It is like 90% enclosed.

 They have a purple one, and one that I think was more green chameleon. Of course they sold out before they released any geo info, which is real cool.
