The purest form of racing.
A completely new XC hardtail to inflict pain on your opponents on the climbs and leave them behind on the descents. This will get you to the top of the podium.

Better grip at the limit. More shock-absorbing comfort in rough terrain. A more balanced, intuitive handling for full confidence and best control in fast downhills. Everything is designed to give you more security in critical situations, giving you a significant advantage over the competition.

Super light
It's an XC hardtail. It has to be light. With the frame weighing only 895 grams, the Scalpel HT is among the lightest bikes in the world. But that's not all.

Unique race geometry
The 66.5° slack head angle provides a lot of stability and control to effortlessly master even the most difficult descents. At the same time, the steep seat angle of 74.5° ensures optimal power transfer in uphills. Additionally, in our size-specific Proportional Response Design, the chainstay length grows according to the respective frame size. This allows for a central seating position on the bike and provides unparalleled handling and best traction.
