Cannondale Trail 5 Mountain Bike 2016 - Hardtail MTB
With its lightweight alloy frame, nimble trail geometry, suspension fork and disc brakes the Cannondale Trail 5 is a fast and fun hardtail mountain bike. Experience the thrill of the trail.
Nimble trail geometry provides a stable and comfortable riding position so that you can ride confidently over rough road surfaces.
Lightweight alloy frame
Strong and lightweight, with race inspired features the 6061 aluminium frame features butted tubes. This means that excess material has been removed from low stress areas of the frame reducing weight while maintaining strength. Smooth welds are a Cannondale trademark feature and ensure that there are no weak spots in the welds as well as giving the frame its slick lines.
Compliance is built into the rear end of the Trail for a more comfortable ride over rough ground without sacrificing any pedaling efficiency.. Save Stays in the rear triangle are shaped to offer vertical compliance without compromising lateral rigidity.
This is the same frame that is found on the higher end Trail models.
The SR Suntour fork offers 100mm of suspension travel to help take the sting out of rough ground and features a lockout lever so that you can ride more efficiently over smooth surfaces.
Shimano drivetrain
The Shimano 3x9 speed drivetrain offers a wide range of gears for taking on steep climbs as well as long descents and road rides.
650b wheels
27.5” (650b) wheels roll much faster over rough ground than the smaller 26” wheels traditionally found on MTBs and are a distinct performance advantage. The double walled rims are strong and durable while the WTB NineLine tyres feature low profile tread. These offer grip on loose surfaces but won’t slow you down too much on the road opening the Trail 5 up to commuter duties as well as off-roading.
Hydraulic disc brakes
Disc brakes offer powerful, reliable and, most importantly, consistent stopping power so that you can control your speed with confidence whatever the weather.
A fun but versatile MTB the Cannondale Trail 5 can be your workhorse during the week and your ticket to adventure at the weekend.
Key Features:
- Designed to be the best blend of fast and fun.
- Lightweight, reliable and affordable.
- Entry-level bikes with performance that's anything but entry-level.
- 27.5 Wheels - Trail bikes are designed with 27.5" wheels because their combination of agility and momentum offers the best possible blend of fast and fun for all riders.
- Optimized Alloy Frame - The Trail features highly manipulated tube shapes, designed to maximise the performance of the frame while reducing weight. The entire frame is heat treated to a T6 hardness after welding to ensure uniform grain alignment and strength.
- Save Stays - Optimized seat stay and chain stay shaping provides vertical compliance for a more comfortable ride with no loss in lateral rigidity.
- Smooth Welds - Trademark double-pass smooth welds showcase Cannondale's aluminium frame mastery. Since we don't patch fill with putty and paint, our process eliminates the stress-risers and weak points found on traditionally welded frames, enabling us to build lighter, stronger frames everywhere in the line.
