a All Mountain Rider Date Reviewed: February 2, 2013 Strengths: Bike rides smooth and comfortable on a variety of terrain. Frame is solid. The Helix hydraulic discs have worked flawlessly and stop on a dime every time. Also the bike just looks great. Weaknesses: I haven't really found any major weaknesses. I do plan to upgrade seat & grips but stock they aren't too shabby with gloves & padded riding shorts. Tires are good for all around riding but a tad slick in softer terrain or mud.

Terry Date Reviewed: July 21, 2012 Strengths: beautifully made frame, fantastic looks, very very light. all-in-all i struggle to find fault with the bike. my local bike shop upgraded my rear mech to an XT item which im sure has made all the difference. Weaknesses: if i was to split hairs i"d say white grips. Bottom Line:

a Cross Country Rider Date Reviewed: April 21, 2012 Strengths: - Overall a very solid and smooth feeling - Good brakes, I was surprised of their stopping power - Frame is awesome, smooth welds. - The RST Omega TNL (is Deuce the same thing?) fork does it's job fine, some say it's easy to bottom it out (haven't managed that yet), but you can easily regulate that with preload and hydraulic damping. Weaknesses: -They could equip it a bit better. Don't get me wrong, Shimano Alivio/Acera derailleur/crank set works just fine, but there could be something better. -There is another thing you have to be aware regarding the Cannondale/Bengal Helix 6 brakes (if you are in EU you probably get those). Almost surely you will find it unable to get any brake pads for this set. So what you wanna do is get pads for Hayes Sole, since those are the only ones that fit. They are easy to get but a bit harder to insert since they are a bit fatter than the original pads. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Price Paid:

from Amherst New York USA Date Reviewed: September 9, 2011 Strengths: TIGHT....smooth ride....Great seat and riding position. I have put in 3 50 mile days on this bike and simply love it. I got the Cannondale team green...looks as awesome as it handles. Weaknesses: assembled in taiwan now....bike is still awesome and is truely the the best 29er HT frame you can get (I like it better then the Niner Air frame) but Cannondale should keep making all of the bikes in PA USA. Better comps would be nice but that would raise the price considerably Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Hunter Creek NY Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $800.00
