Cannondale Rush 400 full-suspension bicycle

Date Published: 5/19/08

The Cannondale Rush 400 is a full-suspension trail bike built for comfort and endurance from a manufacturer that is no stranger to cross country success. The 400 is the least expensive of the Rush range. The other 7 models include the top of the line Team Replica and the Rush Feminine, with a smaller wheelbase and lower standover height. These full-suspension bikes are built for mountain bike endurance trails but can still handle the toughest, rockiest terrain. Wherever you take the Rush 400 you're sure to appreciate the suspension and snappy control, especially at the end of an all day ride when fatigue is setting in. Like the Scalpel range of full-suspension bikes, the Rush 400 features a RockShox Recon 327 suspension fork that saves on weight and provides a smooth stroke. Another eye-catching feature is the single pivot suspension platform along with the short chainstays for tight handling. While the other models offer upgraded components, the Rush 400 remains one of the best value full-suspension bikes.
