Cannondale has done a great job making the Jekyll carbon 1 29 a worthy adversary to any gnarly trail it encounters. Visit The Loam Wolf for our review!

High-pivot mountain bikes are becoming commonplace but the Jekyll's performance is anything but.
Rides light
Carries its speed well
Lively, nimble enduro machine
Adding a coil improves diversity
A race bike with everyday riding manners
Stock wheels
Stock air shock can have it feeling skittish in loose situations
Shock adjustments are hard to reach

There are a lot of model names that have remained and evolved in different bike brands’ line-ups year after year, but certainly no other single model has delivered as many outrageous and truly ‘left of field’ frame designs over the years as the Cannondale Jekyll. Words // Blake Nielsen Photos // Matt Staggs This season, as showcased right here, the Jekyll debuts another entirely new frame design concept. As someone that has followed Cannondale’s journey through MTB over the years […]

There's never been a better Cannondale
Bump control
Pedaling efficiency
No more proprietary shock
Potential for increased drivetrain wear
Keeping the drivetrain clean is critical
Lockout lever on shock is hard to reach

The Cannondale Jekyll is a 165mm travel enduro bike that has boldly jumped onto the high pivot bandwagon for 2022. Along with its hidden shock, idler wheel and shape-shifting paint job, this is no doubt a thoroughly striking machine. But is different better? Read on for our Cannondale Jekyll review.
Beautifully balanced handling
Gobs of traction & high-speed stability
Scaled rear centre sizing
Reliable shifting & powerful braking
Gorgeous iridescent paint job
Dropper post is too short
Needs a tougher rear tyre
Stock wheels are cheap
Rocks can bounce around in the shock cavity
Sep 2021 · Robin Weaver
Cannondale has done a great job with the Jekyll. It’s stable, composed and seriously quick, but a better set of wheels would elevate its performance even further
Great geometry
Super stable and composed
Solid spec that’s ready to be raced
Wheelset could be better as rims are easy to ding and spokes can lose tension
Rocks can find their way into the shock cavity

Size-specific suspension? A high pivot suspension design with 'Guidler' pulley? Big travel? Big wheels? The new Cannondale Jekyll looks good.
Jun 2021 · Peter Walker
Green, orange, high-pivot and guidler. After many tests, what started out as a prototype with two shocks has become the new 2022 Cannondale Jekyll. Can the latest iteration of the Jekyll build on the success of its predecessor?
Confidence instilling on steep and fast terrain
Active suspension generates plenty of grip through corners
Puncture prone tire casing
Spokes lost tension
