Expirience with the Cannondale Scalepl HT LAB71

Cannondale Scalepl HT LAB71 Review
Ludwig Döhl
The Scalepl HT LAB71 was relaunched for the first time in 2022. The special feature of the bike: it has 110 mm of travel and takes the current development in cross-country racing into account. Anyone who has no concrete preferences when it comes to handling, can´t go wrong with the Cannondale Hardtail. Because his handling is pleasantly balanced. The seating position does not manage to be too athletic, nor too upright. It´s moderate character is likely to suite the vast majority of bikers. Trail lovers should nevertheless be convinced by this argument: in the downhill, the coherent geometry ensures you´ll have a wide smile in your face. A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 25 years warranty Cannondale sets the bar high!
