SCALPEL RACE THE ULTIMATE CROSS-COUNTRY RACE WEAPON. Scalpel is designed for hardcore XC racers who want dual suspension performance at a weight lighter than most hardtails. The combination of BallisTec Carbon construction, Zero Pivot stays and System Integrated components like the Lefty fork and OPI stem/steerer make the Scalpel the lightest, stiffest, most responsive dual suspension race bike ever created.

BALLISTEC CARBON Using fibers developed by the military for ballistic armoring, this high-strength carbon construction process yields a frame that’s ultra light, yet pound-forpound stronger than steel.
ZERO PIVOT REAR STAY SYSTEM Through sophisticated carbon layup, the chain stays and seat stays are designed to flex vertically while remaining extremely stiff laterally to deliver 80mm of effective rear wheel travel, while eliminating the weight of bearing pivots.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION Designing the Scalpel Race around System Integrated components like our Lefty forks and Si OPI stem/steerers allows our already lightest-in-class frames to become unmatchably light complete bikes.
