Trail 2 carries the legacy of Cannondale’s 50 years of crafting high-performance bikes. The SmartForm C3 alloy frame and Suntour XCM35 fork, with 100mm travel (80mm on XS and Small sizes) team up for a smooth, capable ride across trails and streets alike. Shimano’s CUES 9-speed drivetrain keeps shifting easy and predictable, while Tektro hydraulic disc brakes give you total control when the trail gets tricky. WTB wheels and wide handlebars boost confidence and handling, making Trail 2 the perfect gateway to Cannondale’s mountain biking heritage.
Trail riding, light commuting, bopping around town, and having a blast.
Cannondale’s C3 alloy frame delivers an easy-to-handle and sporty ride that feels zippy and fun. Lightweight and built to last — kind of like that one pair of jeans you can’t stop wearing (if your jeans came with a lifetime warranty).
Shifting Made Simple
Ditch front derailleur and the clunky front shifters. The 1x drivetrain lets you focus on getting rad, not fiddling with gears. With fewer moving parts, it ensures smooth, reliable shifting for effortless climbs and descents.
We’ve Got Your Back(side)
Comfortable, confidence-boosting geometry and responsive handling mean more smiles per mile, whether you're cruising or charging.
