Description

From LAB to PodiumThe LAB71 variant of the Scalpel is off the map. On the fringe. At the limit. It pushes the boundaries of performance beyond where any cross-country mountain bike has ever been before. With Hi-MOD carbon construction, ultra premium spec, and stunning attention-to-detail, it’s aiming for only one place on the podium: the top.Suspension for SpeedThe most advanced suspension ever made for XC. While others sacrifice performance to save weight, our patented FlexPivot suspension delivers both. Incredibly light, with unreal grip, acceleration and control, it lets you go flat-out everywhere. More speed. More fun.Degrees of DifferenceScalpel’s progressive geometry has evolved even further – we have a full degree and a half slacker headtube angle, one-degree steeper seat tube angle – creating an XC bike that’s more aggressive, lightning-fast, fun and stable everywhere, from the World Cup to your local loop.World’s Best XC ForkLefty Ocho is simply the most advanced, smoothest, most precise-handling ultralight fork ever made. Its one-of-a kind design lets you float through the chop and slice through the chunder like nothing else. Welcome to LAB71The best of the best. The nth degree.
