Hard to know why more people aren't riding Cannondales but I can say my Jekyll
kills it around here. The most notable feature is the adjustable stroke rear
shock, adjusted via a remote on the handlebar. Given that many of our trails
have punchy climbs interspersed, it's really nice to be able to change the
bike's personality on the fly. It's also very useful for getting more out
smooth, pumpy sections of trail, and the short travel mode feels livelier than
a comparable propedal/CTD setting, making it more usable for high-speed
riding. These bikes are definitely worth a look.
