The big tube brand wants to blow up your tires too now, is Guy Kesteven pumped about that or a bit let down?
Fast, smooth, mid-volume action
Neat locking Presta or Schraeder head
Flexible pull-out hose
Tough machined construction and quality feel
Secure travel lock and frame clip
More ‘Midi’ than ‘Mini’ in length and weight
Quality costs
Can trap your hand
Hard top and bottom out

A smooth-riding, future-proof frame with good trail manners and a solid spec as a starting point
Smooth-riding frame
Reliable Deore drivetrain with good chain control
Frame has upgrade potential
Fairly traditional XC shape could limit progression
Fork spring rate isn’t easily adjustable
Rattly internal cable routing

How much difference can 20mm of travel make?
May 2020
Fast enough for XC races and big enough to rip descents
Lightweight frame with modern geometry
Non-racers may want knobbier tires

The Cannondale Trail 5 is a new addition to the £750 category and features a Smartform aluminium frame, which is one of the most comfortable here.
Frame has excellent feel and ride quality...
But it’s also too tall and lacks stand-over clearance
