DESCRIPTION
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.
A new Advanced-grade composite frameset with Maestro suspension offers 5mm added travel compared to the previous generation, going from 135mm to 140mm. The rear suspension is paired with a 150mm fork. The frame is equipped with two, three-position flip chips for the ultimate in versatility and adjustability. The rear flip chip, located on the Maestro rocker arm, lets you adjust frame geometry and fine-tune handling for riding style and terrain. A second flip chip at the headset makes it easy to change the reach, offering 10mm (-5mm, 0mm or +5mm) of adjustment without having to swap your stem. Also new is an integrated down tube storage compartment to carry trail-riding essentials.
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.
Rear Wheel Options
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.

The sizing chart is a great place to start when picking your next bike but everyone will fit a bike a bit differently. Your torso, arm, and leg lengths all play into what size of bike you may need. Plus, there's your own personal preference.
We always recommend swinging by the shop and taking the bike that you're looking for a spin to see how it feels. If you're unable to come by, looking at the geometry of your current bike and comparing it is a good place to start. If you have any further questions, our customer service team is there to help.
