The high-traction tires enhance grip on different terrains, ensuring stability on loose dirt, gravel, and rocky sections.

Versatility is a key feature, as this bike is ready for customization with options to add accessories like bottle cages, a dropper post, or a rear rack for added convenience. Whether you’re looking for a bike to conquer weekend trails, build endurance on cross-country rides, or even use it for daily commuting, this model is built to adapt.
