Cannondale Trigger 3 27.5" Mountain Bike 2018 - Trail Full Suspension MTB
The Cannondale Trigger 3 full-suspension 27.5” mountain bike is designed for riders who refuse to compromise anything, whether climbing fire roads or blasting down singletracks.
BallisTec is Cannondale’s proprietary high stiffness & strength carbon fibre construction. Using a mixture of high strength fibres (similar to those used in military ballistic armouring, hence the name), along with a high impact matrix which is designed to withstand repeat impacts, BallisTec carbon frames exhibits an impressive strength-to-weight ratio. Combined with the direction-specific layup of the individual sheets of carbon fibre, BallisTec carbon frames can be precisely fine-tuned for the perfect balance of stiffness & compliance.
The Cannondale Trigger 3 full-sus trail-riding MTB uses a BallisTec front triangle, along with a SmartFormed C2 aluminium swingarm. The redesigned suspension linkage allows plenty of space inside the frame triangle for a water bottle, giving you the freedom to take the weight off your back as you hit the trails.
Equipped with Fox suspension front and rear, the Trigger 3 relies on a 150mm Float 34 Performance fork, while a Float Performance DPS rear shock takes care of the rear wheel. The rear shock features a Gemini remote-actuated dual mode air spring, which means you get to choose between two travel modes at the back wheel. ‘Flow’ mode gives you 145mm travel for fast & flowy descending, while ‘Hustle’ mode gives you 115mm travel to get a move on up the climbs.
The Trigger 3 comes with a 1x11 speed drivetrain, made up from a mixture of Shimano’s SLX and XT components. The result is an ultra-reliable gear shifting package, with plenty of range and excellent chain retention. Shimano’s SLX level also takes care of the braking, along with a pair of 180mm rotors that ensure you have plenty of power to get you down the mountain safely.
Hustle your way up. Flow down the other side. The Cannondale Trigger 3 mountain bike is a full-sus for all occasions.

* Mountain bikes are sized differently to road bikes. Typically, they are sized in inches as the first MTBs were produced in the USA. European brands like Lapierre and Haibike like to use centimetres for all their bikes. The measurements of their mountain bikes doesn’t match their road bikes but are like a simple conversion from the inches measurement. This is why we have included cm measurements in brackets for the Mountain bike column.
Read our bike size guide for more information on sizing.
