Ultralight Agility

An ultralight Advanced-grade composite frame and fork make for snappy acceleration, while internal cable routing streamlines your cockpit and makes room for your must-have accessories. And the redesigned geometry puts you in a more aggressive position, increases traction and stability, and allows more control at speed and on descents.

Superior Compliance and Control

The Contact XR D-Fuse handlebar features a 5-degree back sweep and flare drop for comfortable and ergonomic grip. Select models also feature the Contact D-Fuse seatpost and one is equipped with a dropper post. Or swap out for your preferred set-up. These proprietary D-Fuse components absorb bumps and reduce vibrations, ensuring less fatigue and more fun on those epic rides.

Unmatched Versatility

Adapt to the route with the flip chip – dropout, which lets you adjust your wheelbase length and rear-wheel tire clearance. Go shorter for responsive handling and quick acceleration. Go longer for added stability plus clearance for larger tires and extra traction. Plus, the integrated down tube storage lets you stash a multi-tool or extra fuel, so nothing’s slowing you down.

Weight: The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
