Cannondale has issued a voluntary recall on the 2008 Scalpel frame, due to the chance that the chainstays may not be properly bonded. According to Cannondale, there is a risk that the chainstays could separate from the dropouts, and that’s probably the last thing you want to happen when bombing some singletrack.

Bang Bang tags along with two big-name freeriders, Aaron Chase and Cam McCaul, as they compete in the Qashqai Urban Challenge. The full video isn’t without its ups and downs, as it includes Chase’s season-ending injury from crashing hard off of a ladder bridge and compressing his vertebrae.
