Saving weight means little without retaining an appropriate level of stiffness and responsiveness too. So we’ve taken all the acceleration and out-of-the-saddle sprint qualities of a carbon XC race rocket and fused them with a rear-end that still rails corners like a hardcore trail bike.
- XC focused, downhill ready
- Light Carbon Frame
- Two water bottle mounts inside the front triangle to support those all-day pedalfests
- The head tube angle (67.1 degree) and reach (425mm) is a little steeper and shorter than a Joplin to meet the demands of aggressive climbing
- Each chainstay length is specific to the individual frame size; meaning riders of every height enjoy the same handling and performance no matter what.
- Replaces the Reserve 25 model, better bead retention, Reserve’s lightest wheelset: Lighter, wider, shallower. Meant for newer Maxxis Widetrail 2.4" XC tires which are popular for elite racers.
