Key Features & Component Highlights

Frame: 6061 triple-butted aluminum main tubes with a tapered (1.5 – 1 1/8") head tube, oversized stays, and a replaceable derailleur hanger — giving a strong, stiff, and durable platform for years of trail use.
-
Fork & Suspension: SR Suntour XCM 32 HLO 29″ suspension fork with coil spring, hydraulic speed lock-out, external preload adjustor, 32 mm stanchions, aluminium lowers, 15×100 mm axle, and 120 mm travel — smooths bumps, absorbs trail chatter, and helps you stay comfortable over rough terrain.

Wheels & Tires: WTB STX i23 TCS tubeless-ready 29″ rims with 32-hole alloy disc hubs, paired with WTB Trailboss 29 × 2.25″ tires — excellent rollover, traction, and stability for mixed terrain and trail riding. Drivetrain & Gearing: 1×10-speed drivetrain with Shimano Deore 32T crank and Shimano Deore 10-speed cassette (11–42T) — simple, reliable shifting with enough gear range for climbs, flats, and flowy descents.

Brakes: Hydraulic disc brakes (Tektro M275 with 160 mm rotors) — delivering consistent, dependable stopping power across varying trail conditions.
