Hold on Tight

Thrill ride. With the most advanced XC suspension and geometry, and rowdy-ready spec, the World Cup winning Scalpel redefines cross-country speed – again.

Taking aim at XC race podiums and technical trails alike, the Scalpel 4 is always down for fast. It’s built on our advanced lightweight carbon construction frameset, then set up with a Shimano Deore/XT 12-speed drivetrain, remote-actuated RockShox SID suspension both front and rear, and Stan’s NoTubes Crest S2 rims for reliable speed and control.
