This 170/165mm 29er combines a high pivot design with a Horst Link suspension to conjure some magic - currently at an incredible price...

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

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.

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

High pivot rear suspension, “Guidler” and a unique shock position. Without a doubt, the new Cannondale Jekyll is one of the most eccentric-looking bikes in our “Best Enduro Bike of 2022” group test! But how does it stack up against the competition?
Intuitive handling
Suspension performance
Background noise and climbing efficiency
Shock is hard to access
Dirt accumulates between the down tube and plastic cover
Spec needs upgrades

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
