  2. You'll find the right balance of price and performance with a cherry-picked blend of Shimano SLX and XT components
  3. With the adjustable angle headset (angled cups sold separately) and Mino Link, you can choose from six different geometry configurations
  4. Guided internal routing, universal derailleur hanger, improved hardware, and a threaded BB make maintenance a breeze
  5. We expanded our size range to ensure a better fit for all riders, and use the best-fitting wheels for each frame size: XS frames get 27.5˝ wheels, S frames get to choose between 27.5˝ or 29˝, and sizes M and up get 29˝ wheels

A light and stiff full carbon frame, 150mm of travel from FOX's Rhythm 36 fork with Float EVOL air spring and GRIP damper for small bump compliance, plus a FOX Performance Float X rear shock. A perfect blend of Shimano SLX and XT components for reliable shifting and durability on the trail. Finally, you'll find adjustable geometry and in-frame storage for keeping your setup dialed just for you.

The final word
