Efficient millimeters
More travel and better quality. Thanks to the magic of our FlexPivot kinematics and Proportional Response suspension, the Scalpel's 120 mm of travel provides more traction and control than ever before, with all the pedaling efficiency and responsiveness you'd expect from a World Cup-caliber bike.
An unmatched fork
No other fork attracts as much attention as the Lefty. It's unique, and so is its performance. Its exclusive single-bottle design and friction-eliminating needle bearings provide instant, smooth, and rigid response that is unmatched. That's why it's been on the podium for the past 20 years.
Devilishly fast
Speed starts with geometry, and the Scalpel has the best numbers. It has a slack 66.6° head angle, a more upright 75.5° seat tube angle, and chainstays that grow as the frame size increases, to keep the rider balanced between the wheels. The result? More power and traction on climbs, better control in corners, and a new level of confidence when riding at high speeds.
