Description

The Cannondale Habit Neo 3 is a full-suspension carbon trail eMTB with a Fazua Ride 60 mid-drive rated 60 Nm and a 480 Wh Fazua Energy battery mounted inside the down tube.

It has a 150 mm RockShox Lyrik Select air fork, a 140 mm FlexPivot rear end with a RockShox Deluxe Select+ shock, Shimano Deore four-piston brakes on 203 mm rotors and tubeless-ready 29 x 2.4 in Maxxis tires.

A Fazua LED hub on the top tube shows charge and assist level, pairs with the Fazua app and carries a USB-C port. Assist stops at 20 mph and there is no throttle. Cannondale publishes no weight and no range figure for it.

The Habit Neo 2 sells for $8,999.00 and the Habit Neo 1 for $11,999.00 on the same frame and drive system. Porsche, the owner of Fazua, announced in May 2026 that it is closing the business, and Fazua says service, warranty and spare parts continue through its dealers.
