Built for the Bold
- All-Terrain Confidence: A lightweight 6061-T6 alloy frame paired with a Salsa Waxwing carbon fork absorbs vibrations, ensuring smooth rides across gravel, dirt, or unexpected detours.

Smart Engineering, Seamless Experience
- Thru-Axle Precision: 12x100mm (front) and 12x142mm (rear) thru-axles boost wheel stiffness for technical descents.
- Clean & Protected: Internal cable routing (including stealth dropper post) and abrasion-resistant fork plates guard against wear during gritty adventures.
