In fact that review can be found in our february 2018 issue. More suited to xc than freeride as stated in many european advertisments. There s a whole bunch of new and revised stuff from cannondale for next year. Better uphill than the jekyll 800 lefty not so good.
With unique performance tech like the gemini dual travel shock and ai offsetndrivetrain the all new jekyll 29 is purpose built for hunting enduro podiums. Very good handling responsive and precise. Rides fine locked out. Don t see any leaks but wont hold air long.

Kicking off is the new lefty max tpc fork found on gemini and jekyll full sus bikes. In a market where suspension forks are generally very good and the pricing is coming down why are cannondale still producing the lefty.
