As a traditional hardtail rider, you love to trust in stronger uphill traction also without rear stay suspension. You appreciate steady running smoothness during high-speed downhills as well as the fact that a bigger wheelset with 29“ tires distinctly enhances your touring comfort. Of course, you therefore don’t mind a few grams of additional weight in comparison to 26” versions.

  • 100 mm front suspension travel (partly lockable from the cockpit)
  • Special BACKFIRE “Sport” frame withadapted 29” geometry
  • Tapered Steerer (1 1/8–1.5”)
  • Shimano “Press Fit” bottom bracket
  • Optionally 3x10-speed or 3x9-speed drivetrain
