Big travel and an aluminum frame join forces to create something magical: an affordable all-mountain bike that climbs as well as it descends. With its SLAMR frame, the X5 has all-mountain capability, as the slightly slacker geometry brings composure to lines that demand calmness and focus. 150mm of travel front and rear in a boon if you're looking to tackle ambitious lines. Hitting the sweet spot between fast-rolling pace and total flickability, the 27.5in. wheelset features 12 and 15mm thru-axles for flex-free, straight-as-an-arrow tracking. Outfitted with a mix of SRAM and RaceFace components, it's built to be a consistent reliable performer.
