ALUXX ALUMINUM TECHNOLOGY
This Performance level frame material features 6061 alloy with single-butted tubes to produce strong, lightweight framesets for a variety of different bikes and riding styles.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
- Modern MTB Design: Tapered fork steerer tubes*, quality components including a 1x drivetrain* with clutch-equipped rear derailleurs, thru-axle hubs*, internal cable routing (including dropper seatpost) and an integrated chainstay protector give aspiring trail riders room to grow. *on select models
- Off-Road Control: New geometry is optimised for confident trail riding and two different wheel sizes (27.5 or 29-inch) depending on frame size. The geometry is also designed for front suspension with either an 80mm or 100mm fork depending on frame size. All models have clearance for high-volume tyres (up to 2.4-inch) for traction and grip on technical terrain.

WEIGHT: THE MOST ACCURATE WAY TO DETERMINE ANY BIKE’S WEIGHT IS TO HAVE YOUR LOCAL DEALER WEIGH IT FOR YOU. MANY BRANDS STRIVE TO LIST THE LOWEST POSSIBLE WEIGHT, BUT IN REALITY WEIGHT CAN VARY BASED ON SIZE, FINISH, HARDWARE AND ACCESSORIES. ALL OUR BIKES ARE DESIGNED FOR BEST-IN-CLASS WEIGHT AND RIDE QUALITY.
