Cannondale have stepped up and offered us this amazing bike worth £4750 for our first ever raffle prize draw. For a chance to win this bike and help us raise the money to upgrade our server you can buy raffle tickets from us via our page on Raffall.com.
The Bike
This is the Habit LT. Not to be confused with the Habit. The LT stands for longer travel (the standard Habit is a 140/130mm bike) and it offers a 150mm travel fork with 140mm of rear travel. Both Habits are available in aluminum or carbon. We tested the Carbon Habit LT 1.
Despite this being the flagship Habit LT, the build kit is not offensively and pointlessly expensive. The bits on this bike have still clearly been chosen with an eye on maximum bang for buck. The fork is perhaps the best indication of intent here; you can’t buy this fork. It’s an OEM only fork. It’s essentially RockShox’s best damper (Charger 3) but stripped of Buttercups (RockShox’s anti-vibration rubber puck thingies). To all real-life on-trail intents and purposes, this is an Ultimate level fork with Select+ decals. The rear shock is a standard Super Deluxe Select+, which works pretty darned fine.
Gears are SRAM Eagle GX. Again, all fine. Not showy. Kudos to Cannondale for speccing a 30T chainring; we like a 30/52T spinny bail-out gear, so thanks! The brakes are SRAM Code R which have the power and feel but miss out on SRAM’s Swinglink stuff (basically a cam that pushes more fluid at the beginning of the lever stroke) and bite-point adjustment.
