if you go to cannondales web site, look at the picture of the cannibal, it still has the ohlins on it, I wonder if they ever plan on shipping it WITHOUT the ohlins, and if so why not change it on the website? Just interesting, its basically a speed minus 1000 RPM's. Thats 1$ per PRM if you think about it.

I wouldn't complain about the Ohlins still being shipped. They are a much better deal, if you ask me. I think their webmaster is very slow at keeping the site up to date.

The speed's shocks have more adjustability, GP Control, Tag handle bars, and the new fuel mapping. Still not worth the extra $1,000 in my opinion.

Don't forget the Speed also has the hydraulic clutch where as the Cannibal doesn't. That should be worth around $200 more.

I thought that some Cannibal's had Hydraulic clutches? I E-Mailed a dealer about a cannibal and they said they had a new shipment in with Ohlins and a magura hydraulic clutch for 7207 out the door.

Today, February 4, is the day that the Cannibal is starting to be built with Arvin shocks.
