Does the world need another full suspension bike? That was the question we put to our designers when we began testing new mountain bike concepts. Their answer? Build it light, use appropriate materials, build a bike the is field-servicable, and built to last, and the answer is a resounding yes.

Built to Last

We set out to build the world's finest fully-suspended cross country bike. With 3.25 inches of rear-travel and an ultra-rugged carbon fiber swingarm, the SXC combines all of the qualities of our XLM hardtail into a race-ready full-sus design. And it takes to the trail at under 25 pounds.

The bike is built to last. It employs the proven full-suspension "swingarm arm and linkage" system. We've sourced an Easton-built carbon fiber rear-swingarm that has hundreds of NORBA and World Cup races under its belt, without a single failure. And we've incorporated low RPM aircraft ball bearings into the critical pivot areas thus insuring years of maintenance-free riding. These features, in combination with an NTS 3.25 front triangle in 6.4 waterjet cut titanium parts in the seattube pivot area, assure of super responsive super light ride.

The SXC was conceived to be a world beating full suspension design. There are no gimics here, just a race-proven design that will stand up to every test of time and every type of trail.
