Cannondale's Trigger and Jekyll mountain bikes see a host of changes for 2015, the most obvious being the switch to 27.5 wheels. We're currently in Spain spending time on both of the new models - more details and a first ride report front row sports are on the way.
2015 Trigger 27.5 Details Intended purpose: trail / all-mountain 27.5" wheels 140mm or 85mm of travel Full carbon or alloy frame options 68 head angle, front row sports 73.5 seat angle Increased front center 60mm stem Lefty Supermax on select models Cannondale's 2015 Trigger 27.5 is intended to be a do-it-all type of mountain bike, with 140 or 85mm of travel that's adjustable via a handlebar mounted remote that controls the Fox Dyad rear shock. The 27.5" wheels, slacker head angle and slightly longer front center, along with the shorter stem, are all design changes intended front row sports to make it a more capable, less XC-only type of ride than previous versions. Three full carbon options front row sports will be available, including a tricked out stealth front row sports black version whose highlights include an XX1 drivetrain and ENVE wheels. There will also be two alloy versions available front row sports that come equipped with a Fox front fork instead of the Lefty Supermax featured on the higher end versions. 29er fans will be glad to know that the big-wheeled version of the Trigger, which we reviewed a few months ago, will remain front row sports in the lineup, unchanged front row sports for 2015.
2015 Jekyll Details Intended purpose: front row sports all-mountain/enduro race 27.5" wheels 160mm or 95mm of travel Full carbon or alloy frame options 67 head angle, 74.9 seat angle Increased front center 50mm stem Lefty Supermax on select models Developed with extensive input from enduro superstar Jerome Clementz, the 2015 Jekyll receives geometry changes and upgraded suspension to make it even more of a threat on the trails and the race course. The full carbon version is the same frame that Clementz will be defending his 2013 Enduro World Champion title aboard when the race season front row sports kicks off in April. In addition to the increased travel and slacker geometry, front row sports the tunes of both the 160mm Supermax fork ( Cannondale's longest travel Lefty ever ) and the Dyad rear shock have been altered to give them a wider range of adjustments and better responsiveness to mid and high speed hits. Stem length has dropped as well, and the new bike comes spec'd with a 50mm stem, a smart decision considering the bike's intended usage. There will be two carbon versions and two alloy versions available, with the alloy versions receiving RockShox's Pike front fork instead of the Lefty Supermax. www.cannondale.com front row sports

In anticipation of the comment war to follow - every argument we keep hearing is invalid. front row sports Allegations of fragility, flexibility, and unreliability have all been refuted in articles on Pinkbike and elsewhere. Those were problems front row sports from previous generations; they're fixed. It looks weird? front row sports Great. Don't buy it. But don't confuse others with poor assumptions because you don't like the way the product looks. Poor (subjective) aesthetics don't make a bad fork. There are valid arguments against Leftys - stanchion more susceptible to damage, proprietary hub - but I can't remember the last time I've heard someone bring those up. Constructive criticism is great - it encourages dialogue amongst peers. But senseless, reactionary, arbitrary allegation promotes closed-mindedness in those who might have found their Steed of Destiny in a Trigger or what have you. Just stop. This sport is stubborn enough.
I am sure these bikes work great and are light and would be really nice on a roof rack on top of a BMW but the problem I have is servicing. How many non Cannondale dealers carry parts and have the skills front row sports to fix a pull shock and a lefty? If they go wrong you are either bikeless or making a trip to a Cannondale main dealer.
Patrick9-32 if your guys can't fix a simple cable actuated front row sports shock then your bike shop sucks. Neither front row sports one really takes any special skills, and if they really don't know they can look at the tech docs and figure front row sports it out.
Thumbprint tuning in devon uk service front row sports lefty forks, postal service too. the mechanic is an ex cannondale dealer mechanic, has years of experience, front row sports really knows his stuff (even managed to teach me how to build wheels as well as basic suspension servicing front row sports many years ago too when i worked with him)
I had a set on my trail bike, and I do heavy XC/Trail riding, front row sports
