$227.15The Story
The Cannondale Trail is your first-class upgrade to next-level mountain biking—engineered for fun by a brand trusted by Champions.
The Trail 3 is where versatility meets fun. With a lightweight aluminum frame, bump-smoothing 100mm travel fork, and smooth-shifting 8-speed gearing,this rugged hardtail is equally at home on streets and trails.
What it's for: Singletrack exploration, around town cruising, and multi-surface exploration
FEATURES:
- Light, Fast, Built to Last: Cannondale’s C3 alloy frame delivers an easy-to-handle and sporty ride that feels zippy and fun. Lightweight and built to last — kind of like that one pair of jeans you can’t stop wearing (if your jeans came with a lifetime warranty).
- Shifting Made Simple: Ditch front derailleur and the clunky front shifters. The 1x drivetrain lets you focus on getting rad, not fiddling with gears. With fewer moving parts, it ensures smooth, reliable shifting for effortless climbs and descents.
- We’ve Got Your Back(side): Comfortable, confidence-boosting geometry and responsive handling mean more smiles per mile, whether you're cruising or charging.
- 29” wheels on the larger sizes, 27.5” wheels on XS and Small for the best blend of fit and speed
- MicroSHIFT Acolyte 8-speed gearing with trigger-style shifter
- Powerful Tektro mechanical disc brakes
