MTB hardtails with 100 mm suspension travel and propulsion-orientated geometry are pure pieces of sports equipment. Nothing else than definitely designed towards speed. Especially if they consist of light-weight and stiff carbon fibres – like our racing rocket Backfire Carbon. The aluminium versions delight with identical character but offer more possibilities for individual tuning. Because racers represent progress.

  • New carbon frame
  • Three aluminium frames: “Sport”, Basic”, “Eco”
  • “Sport“ frame with Tapered Steerer and Shimano “Press Fit“ bottom bracket
  • Optionally disc or caliper brakes
