New progressive geometry
For quick, nimble handling that still keeps you stable and in control on rougher descents.
Tyre clearance
Lots of clearance means you can run meatier tyres (700×45 mm or 27.5×2.1″) for tackling chunkier gravel and terrain.
Tons of mounts
Integrated frame bag and mudguard mounts make it easy to carry gear and water.
Sleek internal storage
A built-in storage compartment in the downtube lets you stow tools and gear.
IsoSpeed smooth
The damped, controlled rebound of the IsoSpeed decoupler soaks up fatiguing bumps without bouncing you around.
