Lighter than ever and with updated suspension kinematics, get ready to push the pace and drop the pack. Geometry and suspension that push the boundaries of modern cross-country riding, translate to supreme confidence riding technical terrain and high-speed singletrack.

FEATURES:

• Smoothlink SL suspension aims to provide maximum traction and comfort in all situations. The flexstay design optimizes the flex to behave like our four-bar Smoothlink suspension designs. Our suspension philosophy is centered on ride characteristics that balance efficiency, comfort, and traction to achieve the legendary Rocky Mountain ride feel.
• The RIDE-4 adjustment system allows riders to quickly fine-tune their geometry with a single Allen key. Four configurations are possible thanks to one rotating chip.
• Smoothwall carbon uses one of the world’s most sophisticated carbon processes to deliver industry-leading stiffness-to-weight, ride quality, and durability.
• Size Specific Tune ensures that riders of all sizes get the right balance of small-bump compliance, mid-stroke support, and end-stroke progressiveness. Our design team does custom shock tunes based on real-world field testing, and adjusts each tune for specific frame sizes.
