TRANCE X 29
Chunky
rock gardens, gnarly roots and steep, technical climbs. The all-new Trance X 29
is for those who consider the hardest section of trail their favorite part of
the ride. With longer suspension travel and adjustable geometry, this aluminum
trail slayer delivers hard-charging singletrack fun.
Engineered to help you ride faster and smoother on
the toughest trails, this all-new 29er has a lightweight, strong and stiff
aluminum chassis with 29er-specific geometry and a plush ride thanks to its
advanced new suspension setup. Longer travel Maestro suspension delivers 135mm
of active rear travel that pairs perfectly with a 150mm fork. The Advanced
Forged Composite rocker arm has a flip-chip that allows you to adjust frame
geometry and tailor the bike’s handling to your riding style and terrain. Choose steeper or slacker
headtube/seattube angles and either a 30mm or 40mm bottom bracket drop to
adjust the handling for your riding style and terrain. It’s all built around
29-inch wheels and lots of clearance (up to 2.5-inch tires) for maximum control
on rugged trails.
29er
confidence and control: 29-inch
wheels roll over rough terrain with balance and stability, giving you more
momentum for technical climbs and the confidence to fly on fast, rugged
singletrack descents. Added clearance for up to 2.5-inch tires.
Progressive
suspension: New
Maestro rear suspension features a
trunnion mount shock with a
longer stroke and smoother feel. With 135mm of full rear-wheel travel (and
150mm up front), it features a two-position adjustable Advanced Forged
Composite flip-chip equipped upper rocker arm for increased stiffness and
strength plus lower overall frame weight.
Adjustable
frame geometry:
Lightweight Advanced-grade composite frameset features adjustable geometry that
offers 66.2 or 65.5-degree headtube and 77.9 or 77.2-degree seattube angles,
resulting in 30mm or 40mm bottom bracket drop options for aggressive trail
configurations.
