Details
From loam to chunder, alpine peaks to desert rock, this trail slayer has a 29-inch front wheel and 27.5-inch rear for the ultimate combo of quickness and control. With 145mm of rear suspension, a beefy 160mm fork, and adjustable geometry, it’s ready to let loose on black diamond descents.
Updated suspension
This “SX” series features all-new Maestro rear suspension with added travel (145mm) for technical singletrack and rugged descents. The trunnion mount shock and Advanced Forged Composite rocker arm combine for a longer stroke that has a smooth, active feel, plus greater stiffness in the chassis for precision control. The rear suspension is paired with a longer travel 160mm fork, giving riders superior confidence and control on the descents.
Adjustable trail geometry
A three-position Maestro flip chip lets riders dial in frame geometry to suit their riding style and terrain. The high setting adds more ground clearance, a good option for tight, technical terrain. In the low setting, the head tube gets slacker and the bottom bracket drops, ideal for confident handling at higher speeds. The middle position is neutral. In addition, a new headset flip chip adjusts reach so you can easily achieve your preferred positioning.
Mixed wheel setup
A 29-inch front wheel provides speed, stability and front-end control on rough, technical trails. A 27.5-inch rear wheel adds agility and maneuverability to help riders rail corners, pop over features and show off their style.
