FLOAT UP TECHNICAL CLIMBS AND SAIL DOWN CHUNKY DESCENTS. THIS ALL-NEW, FULL-COMPOSITE TRAIL BIKE GIVES YOU 140MM OF SMOOTH MAESTRO REAR SUSPENSION AND ALL SORTS OF ADJUSTABILITY. YOU CAN DIAL IN FRAME GEOMETRY AND SWITCH THE REAR WHEEL SIZE FOR THE TERRAIN.
KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS
More Travel
New Maestro rear suspension adds 5mm of travel over previous generation, going from 135mm to 140mm. A trunnion mount shock and Advanced Forged Composite rocker arm combine for a longer stroke with a smooth, active feel. Rear suspension is paired with a 150mm travel fork for superior confidence and control on technical singletrack terrain.
Adjustable Trail Geometry
A three-position Maestro flip chip lets you dial in frame geometry for your riding style and terrain. The high setting adds more ground clearance, a good option for tight, technical terrain. The low setting creates a slacker head angle and lower bottom bracket for confident handling at higher speeds. The middle position is neutral. In addition, a new headset flip chip provides 10mm of reach adjustment.
Mixed Wheel Sizes
All models come with 29-inch front and rear wheels, but the flip chip lets you opt for a mixed wheel setup including a 27.5 rear. The stock setup optimizes stability and roll-over speed, while a 27.5 rear wheel delivers a snappier feel and more saddle-to-tire clearance. Some riders favor this “mullet” setup for riding steep, technical terrain.
