Discover your rhythm on challenging trails. With customizable geometry, the option to choose your rear wheel size, and an updated suspension system with increased travel, this adaptable off-road beast dominates singletrack with ease and poise.
Updated suspension
A new Maestro rear suspension system gives trail riders 140mm of rear travel. The trunnion mount shock and Advanced Forged Composite rocker arm combine for a longer stroke that has a smooth, active feel, plus greater stiffness in the chassis improved tracking over rough terrain. The rear suspension is paired with a 150mm travel fork, providing superior confidence and control on technical singletrack.
Adjustable trail geometry
A three-position Maestro flip chip gives riders the ability to dial in frame geometry for their preferred riding style and terrain. Located on the upper rocker arm of the rear suspension, the high position increases ground clearance, a good option for tight, technical singletrack. In the low position, the head tube gets slacker and the bottom bracket drops, ideal for confident handling at higher speeds. The middle position is neutral. The new headset flip chip adjusts reach, allowing riders to easily achieve their preferred positioning.
Rear wheel options
Riders can choose either a 29-inch or 27.5-inch rear wheel. All models come with 29-inch front and rear, but the Maestro flip chip lets you choose a mixed wheel setup if you prefer. The stock 29-inch rear wheel optimizes stability and roll-over capabilities, while a 27.5 option delivers a more agile, snappier feel and more saddle-to-tire clearance. Some riders favor this “mullet” setup for riding steep, technical terrain.
