Description
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.

Geometry

The purest form of racing

Confidence on edge

No hesitant, fistful-of-brakes descending here. The ultra slack, 66.5° front end gives you the stability and control you need to really open it up on the downhills. Brake later. Corner harder. Pass on the descents.

Stay centered
Scalpel HT’s Proportional Response size-specific chainstays and steep seat angle keep you balanced between the wheels for better traction and power on the ups, and more confident control on the downs.

Drop the chatter
Sculpted flex zones in the chainstays partner with dropped seatstays to eat up the chatter from rowdy terrain, boosting control, smoothing the ride, minimizing fatigue. Go harder. Go faster. Go farther.
