On the descents, the 130mm of air-sprung travel and progressive geometry inspire confidence when the trail gets rough and fast. The chassis remains composed through technical sections, while the dropper post and sharp handling allow for the agility needed on winding singletrack. It is a bike that proves a well-designed hardtail is often the most fun way to master the mountain.
