Cannondale sure likes to cause a stir. After snagging Josh Bryceland and the 50to01 crew, the brand continues to pay homage to its maverick style with their latest downhill rig. Matt Simmonds has been coyly teasing the bike for the past few months, but finally, we get to see the full rig. It’s been confirmed that the bike has two shocks, which is different, to say the least.

The bike hasn’t been released to the public yet, so there isn’t much of a general opinion regarding the design. Here’s what Cannondale had to say about the official reveal:
“Downhill is the ultimate proving ground - a place where relentless innovation requires fearless determination and a bit of creativity. For Cannondale, downhill racing is a kindred spirit, an attitude that has pushed the boundaries time and time again. Cannondale returns to the sport after a decade-long hiatus, bringing new knowledge and a fresh approach. We are here to test, here to learn and here to race.”
