Model Description
Built for winning races and scorching trails, the Scalpel 1 is one of the fastest, lightest, and most capable mountain bikes on the planet. The frame is crafted with our advanced lightweight carbon construction. SRAM’s potent XO AXS wireless electronic group handles the shifting. It rolls on speedy DT-Swiss XCR 1501 Spline carbon wheels, and features the top-of-the-line Fox Float Factory 34 SC Fork, Float Factory SL shock, and Factory Transfer SL Seatpost.
What it's for
The thrill of speed. Winning World Cup XC and Marathon races. High-speed trail slaying.

- Superlight Carbon frame with FlexPivot, 120mm travel, and Proportional Response-Tuned Suspension and Geometry
- Full Fox Factory equipped: Float Factory 34 SC 120mm fork, Float Factory EVOL SL shock, and Factory Transfer SL dropper post

The Beauty of Speed
This ain’t no fashion statement. This is pure, purposeful design. Every element of the Scalpel’s form is driven by function above all – kinematics, weight, stiffness, and capability. Features drive the shape, instead of the shape constraining the features. And fast looks good.
