I’ve always had a special place in my heart for Cannondales. Some things they’ve created were an abomination, others….not so bad. This bike looks sick. Loam Wolf, love your channel. Keep it up.
I have owned 8 cannondale and really love their way of doing things. Currently I own a moterra and it’s an awesome bike! I think this Jekyll looks very capable as well!
HELL YEAH! Thanks for the review and thanks @Cannondale for the opportunity to get this bike! Cant wait to get back out onto the trails once my shoulder surgery heals, and the weather gets nice again.
Long term Cannondale fanatic as a FSI owner, and previous Scalpel SE too. Love the innovation in this bike. Would beyond stoked and super proud to have this as my downhill shredder.
2022 Cannondale Jekyll is my top choice in bike list. This bike brings more speed & stable in downhill & jumps. Looking forward for its long term review. Keep it up.
I'm absolutely going to try and save up over the next year to try and buy this bike. It is exactly what I need after getting back in and quickly maxing out my 140mm trail bike. That paint is Gorgeous. I wish more bike makers did interesting colours like this, but I guess it's all cost management.
I started mountain biking on the Cannondale Trail, then I eventually upgraded to my first full suspension: the Cannondale Habit. My hardtail is now for my friends trying to get into mtb, excited to possibly grow into the Jekyll!
The gap on either side of the protector plate to shoot out the side looks cool. The tuned suspension that allows for hard race riding and/or trail riding with friends opens this bike up to all levels, especially someone new to the sport who's bike sticks with him as he progresses.
A 2007 Cannondale Prophet was my first full suspension bike. Everyone said I was crazy and there was no way I would need 140mm of Suspension. It took me awhile to get used to that Lefty but man I pounded on that bike.
Looks like an amazing bike, sounds like a heavy hitter without losing the poppiness of your more smaller travel bikes. Can't wait to hear to more long term review.
Beautiful bike! It's been a while since Cannondale was even on my radar (last time was around 2006 when I saw the Perp for the first time), but this one has caught my eye. Great channel, keep it up boys!
Love it.. My first Full Suspension bike was a Jekyll, I have excellent memories from that Bike. This update looks awesome, really like how they hid the shock. Thanks for the video.
Cannondale has always thought outside the box. I remember the first time I saw a Lefty shock. It looked so alien! Now, I actually think they look rad. This new Jekyll looks amazing without having to do a double take. Great review, Loam Wolf.
This bike looks amazing! It is great to see these new developments in Cannondale bikes! Thank you for your video and reviews. Looking forward to know the feedback of the longer term tests
Been eyeing this as my first FS bike after my RM Growler hardtail. Love Cannondale's approach to design over the years and very excited to see this as a giveaway!
Absolute beauty of a bike! Great job Cannondale on the design and pushing the envelope on bike design! Thanks Loam Wolf for the review, love the channel!
i like the shock position but agree, see how clogged it gets in the wet. gorgeous bike though! 😍 colour is amazing and the small cannondale decal is clean
I have bought this bike. Absolutely love it. It is impressive at every turn. I went a smaller due to new RAD measurements. The cockpit is still comfortable to ride, and I am 6'1" on a small. So impressed, I want another one for steep terrain in a longer bike. Lets say it's for the wife, wink, wink. Well done cannondale. So glad I pulled the pin on the norco range and got a jekyll
I'm also 6'1" and typically ride a large, but according to their size charts they recommend an XL(?). Any insight on which way you'd go? I'm leaning towards a large.
@@leozz8074 depending on where you will ride it. I wanted something to jump and be more playful as we don't have much steep terrain. I needed the travel. But I went on a recommendation about this measurement called a RAD. It has you in a stands for maximum torque for a huck. It worked out my RAD was 835mm. That is the measurement from the centre of the bottom bracket to the centre line between your hand position on the handlebars. Mine was a mind blowing exactly the same as a small. I was looking at going a large in the original order then wonder if I should have gone a medium due to the large reach measurements were too big for me.
@@gregoryschmidt4676 Interesting. I'll have to look that up. I'll be riding a mix of xc and steeper terrain in the Rocky Mountain region of the US. Thank you very much.
I Currently own a cannondale scalpel si and can confidently say that they make quality products. I see Cannondale as the “Apple” of bicycle companies, they are cutting edge.
Great video again, using references to geo, suspension behaviour and components to contextualise your experience riding the bike is actually somewhat quantifiable for the viewer. Much better than “what surprised me most about this bike was *insert vague generalisation, slightly reworded from the last bike I said the same thing about*” - ok send me the Jekyll now k thanks 😁
Very well put together bike overview and video. The way you package the information and deliver it to us is refreshing and in my opinion, pretty spot on. Also, Cannondale hasn't had my attention since the days of the Judge, but with this bike, I am listening and watching. Way to go!
They sure have come along way from the days of the lefty. I have to admit I've never riden a high pivot bike. I might need to barrow one. Great content on your chanel Lom Wolf!
Cannondale is the most fun and fastest bike I own out of my fleet! Def looks like a great bike and look forward to the follow up and the giveaway. Best of luck to everyone and shred on
i once tested a 2017 Jekyll, was, a pretty fun bike back than. What excites me the most on this is the kinda unusual shock-placement that would make it interesting to ride
That color caught my eye so fast. It’s good to see that Cannondale has stuck to their roots of being a little different than the other guys. Downtube shock may be a little unconventional but nothing like the good Ol’ Lefty shock!
Piece of art.. and this sweet paint colour? Had two Cannondale bike's and after few years finally something new on the market in the crowd of pivots, maestro constructions etc
Cannondale, living up to their motto. Always coming up with new and interesting ways to spice it up a little.
I’ve always had a special place in my heart for Cannondales. Some things they’ve created were an abomination, others….not so bad. This bike looks sick.
Loam Wolf, love your channel. Keep it up.
Thanks very much we appreciate your support!
Cannondale's paint jobs are top notch nowadays. I've always wanted one ever since seeing a lefty xc bike for the first time. This Jekyll looks sick!
Got a second hand 2019 Cannondale FS-3 lefty hardtail. If I only would be so lucky to get this full suspension one.
I have owned 8 cannondale and really love their way of doing things. Currently I own a moterra and it’s an awesome bike! I think this Jekyll looks very capable as well!
HELL YEAH! Thanks for the review and thanks @Cannondale for the opportunity to get this bike! Cant wait to get back out onto the trails once my shoulder surgery heals, and the weather gets nice again.
Love to see Cannondale makings something that many riders would actually be interested in!
The colorways on both specs of this bike are phenomenal!
My first MTB was a Jekyll. The High Pivot and Split frame is gutsy, only time will tell. love the channel.
Long term Cannondale fanatic as a FSI owner, and previous Scalpel SE too. Love the innovation in this bike. Would beyond stoked and super proud to have this as my downhill shredder.
Great review. Sick paint job on the bike. I can’t wait to demo this bike!
2022 Cannondale Jekyll is my top choice in bike list. This bike brings more speed & stable in downhill & jumps. Looking forward for its long term review. Keep it up.
The only newer bike that keeps my head turned… it’s so sick! Love that you were able to include someone from Cannondale in the video! Awesome 🤘🏼
Cannondale has always been making special bikes and this one of their best creations! It looks awsome and i bet it rides awsome!
Love the look of the Jekyll. Makes me want to try a high pivot bike.
What a killer looking bike! Don’t see Cannondales too often on the trail.
I'm absolutely going to try and save up over the next year to try and buy this bike. It is exactly what I need after getting back in and quickly maxing out my 140mm trail bike. That paint is Gorgeous. I wish more bike makers did interesting colours like this, but I guess it's all cost management.
Glad Cannondale has made changes to reduce so many proprietary components. Also glad to see them pushing the envelope with frame design, too.
Superb love the new jekyll, i want to shred that bike soon! 😎
That paint job is sick. Love the subtle color change
I started mountain biking on the Cannondale Trail, then I eventually upgraded to my first full suspension: the Cannondale Habit. My hardtail is now for my friends trying to get into mtb, excited to possibly grow into the Jekyll!
I love this bike! And the channel as well!
An innovative frame design from Cannondale? That's never happened before. 😜 This is one sexy whip!
The gap on either side of the protector plate to shoot out the side looks cool. The tuned suspension that allows for hard race riding and/or trail riding with friends opens this bike up to all levels, especially someone new to the sport who's bike sticks with him as he progresses.
great to see reviews of this bike come out finally. Sounds amazing
This Cannondale looks great and I really like how the rear shock is mounted in the "gravity cavity". That Fox Factory 38 up front is the bomb!
A 2007 Cannondale Prophet was my first full suspension bike. Everyone said I was crazy and there was no way I would need 140mm of Suspension. It took me awhile to get used to that Lefty but man I pounded on that bike.
Excited with new performances bike from Cannondale. Finally they are back with this amazing looking bike
Looks like an amazing bike, sounds like a heavy hitter without losing the poppiness of your more smaller travel bikes. Can't wait to hear to more long term review.
Looking very comfortable on that Jekyll! Ill take it.
Awesome bike. That paint job is Suhweeet!!!
Really excited that you guys contacted the engineers and walked through a history of the design and test process.
The more I look at this bike, the more I love it.
Beautiful bike! It's been a while since Cannondale was even on my radar (last time was around 2006 when I saw the Perp for the first time), but this one has caught my eye. Great channel, keep it up boys!
I still own my 2012 Jekyll, great bikes! This new Jekyll looks incredible, can't wait for your long term review.
Love it.. My first Full Suspension bike was a Jekyll, I have excellent memories from that Bike. This update looks awesome, really like how they hid the shock. Thanks for the video.
Man the new Jekyll looks sweet! After you guys are done testing it you can send it my way to play on the East Coast long term. Great review!
That's an impresive bike Drew! looking forward to get a chance to win it.
Awesome review! Can't wait to ride mine once the snow melts!!
This bike is sick. love the unique paint job
Just got a small cannondale trail for my daughter to learn on. Love their bikes.
Still have memories of that Cannondale Raven, loved how they have that heritage of being different.
Loved My Jekyll i hade back in -20 this one seems even better
That paint job is killer! Really interesting shock & down tube design too.
Thanks guys - quality as usual. Futuristic rig! Love the innovation, can’t fault Cannondale for that.
This looks like the bike thats going to be the one to beat. Great speck and tech, looking forward to learning more about it on the following reviews.
Sick bike with a killer paint job .. Looks like the most versatile rig out of the current crop of high pivot bikes
Good stuff! Looking forward to the long term review. Bike looks rad!
That paint is Mint!!!!! So freaking sweet!!!!
Great job by Cannondale progressing MTB design and innovations! Solid review! I need to make a trip to Bend!
Cannondale has always thought outside the box. I remember the first time I saw a Lefty shock. It looked so alien! Now, I actually think they look rad. This new Jekyll looks amazing without having to do a double take. Great review, Loam Wolf.
Would love to have this bike!
I really enjoy mine

im a fan of these bike since 2015 looks killer!
Absolute beauty of a bike! Great job Cannondale on the design and pushing the envelope on bike design! Thanks Loam Wolf for the review, love the channel!
Cannondale makin some moves 💪
This bike is dope. There doesn’t seem to be that many people as excited about high pivot but this bike would rip in my home terrain in Laguna beach
Such an underrated yet well known brand. love my cannondale bad habit. And when I saw this bike I just about lost it
Beautiful bike, a dream come true!! Cannondale always delivers such beauty 😍, keep the stoked on!! You guess are upping the bike world news!!
Good to see the jekyll getting an update
Ha thought I won for a quick sec
i like the shock position but agree, see how clogged it gets in the wet. gorgeous bike though! 😍 colour is amazing and the small cannondale decal is clean
It shouldnt get any less clogged than the Norco Range, atleast the Jekyll has the ability to remove the cover for easy cleaning.

Just heard about this bike and now I can’t stop looking at it!
An awesome bike, I’ve only seen a few of them on local trails with their amazing color ways !
Nice review! Didn’t like the frame design in the beginning but it’s definitely growing on me😍
Glad to see Cannondale make a bike like this.
Great video thanks for sharing

Much appreciated and thank you very much for the feedback! We do our best. And Cannondale has definitely got a solid machine here.
Love the new Jekyll! Would happily take it around Europe to rip on this rig🙌🏻
Great looking bike in person. C-dale has a history of pushing the limits in bike design. Scott V is a ripper BTW!
Ive been a fan of the Jekyll since its launch. The new version seems to be a great improvement over the previous model.
Really love the paint job. Very nice
Some of the nicest paint in the business at the moment
This is my new favourite enduro bike. It looks amazing, and the name is badass. Split personality bike. Would look nice near my Scalpels...
Great build choice, cool paint and frame design!
They sure have come along way from the days of the lefty. I have to admit I've never riden a high pivot bike. I might need to barrow one. Great content on your chanel Lom Wolf!

Looks amazing , props to Cannondale for innovating and dare ti proof new ideas !!!
Sick looking all-rounder!
Great video. Would love to hear more from Scott on the design process
Have a 2019 jekyll, last one in 27.5, great bike and very playfull whit his 420 chainstays, love it.
Nice to see cannondale making these amazing bikes
i once tested a 2017 Jekyll, was, a pretty fun bike back than. What excites me the most on this is the kinda unusual shock-placement that would make it interesting to ride
I'm all for Cannondale innovating and trying new ideas. Looking forward to the updates on this bike
That color caught my eye so fast. It’s good to see that Cannondale has stuck to their roots of being a little different than the other guys. Downtube shock may be a little unconventional but nothing like the good Ol’ Lefty shock!
Oooo can't wait to see what's coming!
New subscriber! Great content. Thanks for creating for us.
Love the look of the 2022 Jekyll. I ride a 2016 Jekyll and would thoroughly enjoy an upgrade.
Piece of art.. and this sweet paint colour? Had two Cannondale bike's and after few years finally something new on the market in the crowd of pivots, maestro constructions etc
Looks like a fun and exciting bike!
Beautiful and capable. With this Jekyll, I wouldn't hyde.
clever clever!
What a great looking bike!
Great review of this bike. Good luck to all entering!
My first real bike was a Cannondale Super V DH 4000 back in the day and would be awesome to get back to a Cannondale again.
I love what cannondale is doing with their new bikes, cant wait to see who wins the giveaway!
This thing looks great! Excited to see the long term reviews.
the Jekyll looks so awesome! Can’t wait to get my hands on one in Melb Australia!
