DO LIKE


What do you get for that much money? A fair bit: Cannondale specced the excellent RockShox Pike RCT3 up front. The higher-end Carbon-framed Jekylls ship with Cannondale’s Lefty SuperMax fork, but honestly, I prefer the Pike. The Lefty is crazy stout—much like the rest of the Jekyll frame—but I personally prefer the Pike’s actual stroke.
As for bringing this thing to a stop, you’ll be squeezing a set of Magura MT2 brakes. The drivetrain is a SRAM dance party: X7 shifters and front derailleur, X9 rear derailleur and a 36/22 SRAM crankset. As a nice bonus, Cannondale equipped the Jekyll 3 with an MRP 2x guide. For hoops, you’re looking at WTB STi23 rims mated to SRAM X9 hubs. Finally, the bike also comes with an X-Fusion HiLo dropper post.

Wow that canondale is mucking fagic. Love it

I think the trans x dropper on the marin is what I have, works well and lovely lever lol.

The Jekyll is an awesome bike, well worth a look. The shocks trickery sounds like potential issues though lol.

Lose the halfords hate, the Voodoo I had was great and the boardman's always review well. Halfords stores themselves are hit and miss though, hate the staff, not the product
