South African Alan Hatherly has been one of the most consistent riders this season and after winning the first Short Track of the year, in Petrópolis, he has not stopped being one of the usual rivals for the podium. Here we bring you in detail the Cannondale Scalpel with which he is competing in 2022.

The latest version of the Cannondale Scalpel was introduced in 2020 with its original Flexpivot suspension system.

Alan Hatherly's Cannondale Scalpel

Proof of his great performance is that Hatherly is third in the overall World Cup standings, even after finishing a long way behind in Vallnord, where he was only able to finish 25th after a week of illness.

Cannondale is characterized by following its own paths in the development of its bikes, it is not usually guided by trends and its Lefty Ocho fork is the maximum exponent of this.

 

Under the feet of the Cannondale Factory Racing rider this season we have almost always seen the Cannondale Scalpel that we were able to have a few minutes in Vallnord to analyze it in detail.

The difference between the 110 or 120 mm Lefty Ocho Carbon is not noticeable at first glance, but Hatherly opts for the one with less travel.
The finish of the Lefty's protection is not pleasing to everyone.
The lines of the Cannondale Scalpel are incomparable.
