Specifications

Frameset

Frame

Comfortable seating position thanks to raised steering. Narrow 27.2 mm seat post gives the bike seat 5 times greater shock absorbency than a traditional frame. Low bottom bracket at 69° angle for greater stability in turns. Short rear wheel base for maximum manoeuvrability.
Suspensions
Front suspension: Rockshox 30 Silver, 180 g lighter than the fork on the Rockrider 540. Conical fork for stiffer directional control while steering. 100 mm travel with +/- adjustable fork stiffness (using an internal coil spring). Hydraulic internal cartridge valve that regulates bounce. Fork equipped with a lockout to prevent bobbing on faster terrain. Lockout activated directly from the handlebar using the ergonomically-shaped ComboLock shifter. - Rear suspension: No rear suspension.
