Fork material
The fork is made out of carbon, so, it is super light and stiff. In conclusion, a carbon fork gives you great control when steering, and is also more forgiving.
Rear Shock
Cannondale Scalpel Si Limited Edition bike has the Fox Float Factory DPS EVOL model installed, and has a travel of 100mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering.
