The Cannondale Enduro Team Is 2023 Season Ready With New Faces, Kits & Goals
Press Release: Cannondale Enduro Team
Cannondale's Enduro Team is ready for the 2023 enduro season with new faces, kits, and goals. The team's roster will consist of Ella Conolly, Max Beaupré, and Iago Garay, who also functions as the team captain.
Ella Conolly is back with Cannondale for a sixth season and has her sights on chasing the top step of the EDR podium after a strong year last season. Max Beaupré gets the bump up to an entire EDR season and aims to follow up on his top 20 results from Sugarloaf in 2022. Iago Garay, an enduro world series veteran, is excited to have a fresh start and team atmosphere for the new EDR season while being ready to get back into the top 20.
 | I am so excited for this Enduro World Cup season, my 6th year on a Cannondale already! It’s great to see the team growing. We have the best crew to hit the races with and have a lot to learn from each other. Having the support of Cannondale and the freedom to each choose personal sponsors is a dream combo. After last year, my sights are set high for this season. Our team camp in Italy was a huge success and the bikes are primed ready to go. The countdown to Tasmania is on! |
| Looking forward to traveling the world this season, attacking all types of terrain alongside two of the biggest legends in the cycling world! My biggest goal this year is to learn as much as possible from my teammates and crack the top 30 consistently. Another thing I’m super excited about is the support system I have behind me for this season. I find a lot of value in a brand who focuses on the needs and desires of their athletes and Cannondale embodies both of those traits to the highest regard. It’s been a dream of mine to get to this point and it’s an honor and a privilege to be a part of this team! |
| Couldn’t be happier to ride Cannondale bikes this season. Team camp was amazing and the bike is feeling so dialed it has got me fired up to race! Looking forward to the first EDR world cups in Tasmania where I will try to get back into the top 20. It’s going to be a great season traveling with Max and Ella. |
SRAM Support for 2023
Along with all of the rider's individual sponsors, we want to thank the SRAM and RockShox team for supporting Cannondale Enduro's 2023 season with the best suspension and drivetrain.

Youve ridden both and think both the Jekyl and the GT Force Carbon are SO good?
Bike is a stunner, looks great.
I havent jumped on the HP bandwagon yet, not that I dont think the reasoning isnt sound, just havent found one that fits me better than my Spire. Heavily considered the Range, but at the time I didnt want a carbon bike, ended up with a carbon bike.....#Covidproblems
I was having some with my 12s XT setup. But I went back to sram and they all went away.
Loads of HP bikes around here, and guys look to be having fun daily on them.
@drakefan705 I'm sorry that's been your experience. I've found the opposite with the Jekyll. I was skeptical thing into it as it was a Large and I usually ride a medium, it was also my first 29er, I've been holding strong to 27.5 but this thing is just as much fun and as playful as my Chromag Stylus.
Really though I have a kid and work full time a nurse in an emergency department. I also work every other weekend. On most of my days off I'm a stay at home Dad. Having an eMTB helps me get out on rides that I really wouldn't have time for. If I have an hour to ride I can get the equivalent of a 2-3 hour ride in on my eMTB and can keep my heart rate up in zone 2 140-150 bpm. I burn about 1000 k calories. I'd much rather get exercise on an eMTB than on a trainer watching Netflix.
If I'm going out for a ride with friends or to Oakridge, Moab, or Bellingham for a long weekend of riding I bring my analog bike. And I'm much more fit because I've been putting down hours of riding at 140-150 heart rate on my eMTB that I would have missed out on if I could only take my MTB out once every week.
Lastly for those who say it's too expensive. Yes if you want an sworks levo it probably is too expensive. I bought my alloy levo comp for about 5k. I sold my "park bike" that I wasn't ride as much anymore so I payed 2k out of pocket.
