Very progressive geometry and kinematics, this bike simply blows everyone away after the first minutes they get on it. The Define features unique semi-internal cable routing - a solution that is elegant and easy to service. The geometry is adjustable via offset headset cups that change the reach and top tube length, and via the shock mount which allows the bottom bracket to be raised or lowered. Big sealed pivots keep it stable and guarantee long periods of smooth, service free function. There are a few things that we borrowed directly from the Snabb - and that is the kinematics of the 4-bar suspension that everyone loves (Pinkbike: "There is so little pedal-induced bobbing at play here that it sort of boggles the mind”). The most modern Enduro and Trail bikes on the market is available with carbon or alloy frames.
MODEL INFO
Arguably one of the most universal bikes in the range. Rip up and down mountains all day, every day. The carbon version of the highly praised Snabb can really do it all but the Define takes things to the next level. This beautiful frame is light and tough and has lot's of unique features including adjustable reach and BB height. One of things we like a lot are the semi-integrated cable guides - a practical and elegant solution of the internal / external cable routing dilemma. Oh and don't be fooled by the “shortness” of it's travel. It really feels like it has much more than the quoted numbers. At the same time, the climbing capability of this bike is absolutely amazing.
