How is the C-Dale gearing ?is it high? does it take a lot of Revs to get going? does it have a lot of power in the low, mid, top end? Which has the most powere low, mid, top?
How does it compare with the 400EX, Raptor, DS650, Banshee, and Polaris Scrambler500?
Which is better Jumping, Draging, Trail riding, MXing, and over all which is better?
What is the best Cannodale for Jumping, Trail riding, Draging, and MXing but mostly the first 2 the Speed, FX, Blaze, or the cannibal?

 

the C-dale is geared a little high, but I think its perfect for me, yes it does require a little reving, it has extremely good mid-range, and a very good topend, on the bottom, about equal with the 400EX,a definatly like it better than the EX and Raptor, I would have a DS or Banshee if I duned though, but I dont i ride mostly tight woods and Ash dumps, which is alot of hills and jumps, I would say either the Blaze or Speed, because I think the Cannibals already went to Arvin fronts.

 

Any one else?

 

Gearing is fine but it's got that high compression so it doesn't like to lug around and you have to gas it from a start. When I race at the dunes I have to lean over the front in 2nd gear to keep it down on the starts. Spacing between 4th and 5th gear is a bit off, you have to about hit the limiter in 4th before shifting and it still feels like it falls out of the power a little, 5th feels like overdrive.

I can't see lowering the gearing any but I ride dunes mostly, the trail riding I've done it seems to be fine.
