CannondaleCujo
Algupära
Cujo jõudis turule 2017. aastal kui Cannondale'i soodne 27.5+ kõva sabaga jalgratas, sõites lühiajalisel plussrehvide lainel, mis domineeris lühidalt maastiku-kõva sabaga disainis aastatel 2016–2019. See ehitati alumiiniumist SmartForm raamile, millel oli maastikule kohandatud geomeetria — lühikesed ketihoovad, lõtv 67-kraadine pea nurk, dropper-posti ühilduvus — ja 2.8-tollised plussrehvid laiadel velgedel. See oli suunatud kui vastupidav ja haarduv alternatiiv algajatele XC kõva sabaga jalgratastele. Tootmine toimus Cannondale'i Aasia alumiiniumitehastes. Tootevalikus olid Cujo 3 (algajatele) kuni Cujo 1 (Deore-varustusega lipulaev umbes 1 399 euro eest) ning naistele mõeldud 'Scarlet' variant. Kui plussrehvide trend hääbus ja tööstus koondus 29-tolliste rataste ümber, lõpetati Cujo tootmine umbes 2020–2021 — täiskasvanute mudelid ei jõudnud 2022. aasta mudeliaastani. Cannondale hoidis Cujo nime elus ainult laste jalgratastel (20+, 24+) kuni 2024. aastani kui noorte kõva sabaga jalgrattad.

Verdikt
- Outstanding component value: XT-level rear derailleur, RockShox Recon RL fork and a TranzX dropper post on a sub-£1,000/€1,400 hardtail
- Plus 2.8" WTB Ranger tyres give huge traction and comfort on roots, gravel and broken urban surfaces
- Well-damped 120 mm fork that flattens trail buzz and inspires confidence on rough ground
- Playful, forgiving handling that suits beginners and thrash-and-bash trail riding
- Conservative/steep 68.5° head angle feels nervous and twitchy on steeper, faster descents by modern trail standards
- WTB Ranger tyres have a low, fast-rolling tread that loses grip and cornering precision when leaned hard or in mud
- Heavy for the category (~14.5 kg) — the plus tyres and rims add rotating mass and sluggish acceleration
- Locked into the dead 27.5+ tyre format: replacement plus tyre choice is now shrinking and resale value suffers
- Lower trims (Cujo 2/3) drop to Tektro brakes and SR Suntour fork, noticeably blunting the value story above the flagship
