29er wheels offer fantastic 'roll over' ability and keep their speed well, so they are perfect for your next mountain bike outing. We pair our double butted aluminium frame with Manitou's Markhor air suspension fork and a twin chainring 11-speed Shimano drivetrain for the perfect combination of comfort, control and simplicity. The slightly more upright riding position in comparison to our more racy models puts less strain on the lower back and also improves the visibility of what lies ahead.
Mountain biking is one of the most varied cycling disciplines and probably the most demanding when it comes to equipment. While full suspension bikes offer amazing riding characteristics, the classic hardtail remains one of the purest tools for the job. Our 29er wheel equipped BIG.NINE range comes in carbon and aluminium and features multiple geometry options. The updated CF carbon and LITE aluminium framed BIG.NINE offer truly modern geometry with increased standover clearance and handling stability to better deal with the tough race tracks of today, with downcountry ready TR options that boost fork travel and add in aggressive tyres and dropper posts. The more relaxed geometry of the BIG.NINE TFS and SPEED offers a more comfortable, upright riding position. Our classic hardtails are the backbone of our range and showcase the enormous wealth of experience and knowledge we could gain in over half a century of bike production and manufacturing. The BIG.NINE range represents the symbiosis between modern frame technology, attention to detail and craftsmanship 'Made in Taiwan' symbolises.
