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”). These modern enduro and trail bikes on the market are available with carbon or alloy frames.
This new big wheeled enduro racer and all mountain bike is one of our dreams come true. The biggest and baddest bike in our range just had to go full carbon. With the whopping 150mm of travel in the rear and a massive 160mm fork paired with the 29” wheels this beast can roll over anything at any speed. But at the same time, the light weight, super efficient power transmission redefine the range of applications that one bike can have. We wanted a bike that can pedal up the sections that others have to walk, and fly over sections that others have to plough through. Riders and press loved last year’s alloy snabb 150 but the define takes things to the next level.
