Jordan sits down and talks about all things Lefty with Cannondale Factory Racing (CFR) and the suspension team at Cannondale. Steve Exstance, Murray Washburn, and Lefty Larry walk us through the conception, progression, and even electrification of Cannondale’s Lefty line.
Larry was kind enough to meet us at CFR headquarters. He described “a day in the life at CFR,” explaining what team members do and how all the moving parts behind wins work together.

We cover how the team dials in their suspension for different course demands and rider styles and what it’s like servicing multiple Lefties while traveling worldwide. Plus, we get the insider scoop and some secret tips from Lefty Larry for setup, lockout and the team answers reader questions.
