It's right for you if...
You want your fat bike to feel like your traditional mountain bike. Or, you're riding a fat bike year-round and want to put your money into the parts that really matter, like a workhorse drivetrain and a quality suspension fork.
The tech you get
A lightweight aluminum frame with horizontal sliding dropouts, an 80mm Manitou Mastodon suspension fork with an air spring and lockout, a dropper post for getting low, a wide-range SRAM NX/GX Eagle 1x12 drivetrain, SUNringlé Mulefüt wheels paired with a 108T Rapid Drive hub for instant engagement, and extra-grippy, studdable Bontrager Gnarwhal TLR tires.
The final word
This fat bike handles like a traditional trail bike, and it can rip through even crazier stuff, like snow and sand. You're getting a great frame and solid parts group, but you're really paying for the incredible capability of the Manitou Mastodon fork.
favorite_borderWhy you'll love it
- If you thought that fat bikes were sluggish, this one will change your mind
- The combination of the Manitou Mastodon fork and wide, beefy tires make it easy to charge through snowy trails and rock gardens alike
- It's a four-season freedom machine that lets you ride outside all year long
- Horizontal sliding dropouts lets you fine-tune your geometry—run it long for stability, or shorter for more nimbler handling
- The dropper post lets you lower your saddle on the fly so it's out of the way on descents
"Why pick anything else?"
"It's fast, handles trails like a boss, and the power transfer when pushing the cranks is nothing but impressive. It's a wonderful combination of smooth and snappy that thrives on the roughest-looking rubble. "

27.5˝ fat tires
More efficient 27.5" fat tires keep you rolling faster, especially on groomed or packed snow.
Rapid Drive 108 rear hub
With 108 points of engagement, Rapid Drive gives you nearly instant acceleration instead of a clunky lag when you step on the pedals. You get smooth, immediate power to blast out of corners and hammer through the rough stuff. And that extra pedal ratchet adds control that can make all the difference when tackling a tricky climb.
Dropper post
Use the remote lever to lower your saddle so it's out of your way when you're descending and cornering.
Tubeless Ready wheels & tires
Tubeless Ready rims and tires make it easy to ditch the tubes so you get better traction, fewer flats, and less weight. Just add TLR rim strips, valves, and sealant.

Sizing & Tech
The charts below show our recommended sizes based on height, but there are some other factors, like arm and leg length, that determine a great fit. That’s why you’ll see some overlap in our recommendations. Not every rider who’s 5´8˝, for example, will fit on the same size bike. The best way to find your perfect fit is to consult the experts at your local retailer.
