The Cannondale Habit Neo 2 is a full suspension trail bike with 130 mm travel back and 140 mm front. The weight is 23,65 kg without pedals. There are a lot of emtbs out there with 150 to 160 mm travel, included the Cannondale Moterra Neo. Why would we pick a bike with less travel?
Geometry
The Habit Neo looks a lot like the burlier bikes with more suspension travel. A chainstay length og 455mm is common for a full suspension 29er emtb.

The Maxxis Rekon 29×2.6″ tyres are lightweight and has less grip than we’re used to. So, there are a few signs indicating the Habit Neo is designed for different use than the longer travel bikes.
