Highlights
Light and durable
ALUXX aluminium frame features updated shaping and a lighter overall weight for improved performance on off-road terrain.
Off-road control
Geometry is optimised for either 29-inch wheels or 27.5-inch depending on frame size, and a suspension fork of either 100mm or 80mm. The result is in confident off-road performance for riders of all sizes.
Modern MTB design
Wide tyre clearance (up to 2.4-inch), internal cable routing, thru-axle hubs, integrated chainstay protection and quality components (including a 1x drivetrain option) gives aspiring trail riders room to grow.
