Top-level XC and marathon hardtail that's also our lightest BIG.NINE yet! Featuring a super-light CF5 carbon frame and only the best components like RockShox's latest SID Ultimate fork, Reynold's Black Label carbon wheelset and a featherweight Shimano XTR/Race Face drive train, our BIG.NINE 9000 is ready to be put on the start line. This is a high-performance race hardtail at its best.
Mountain biking is one of the most varied cycling disciplines and probably the most demanding when it comes to equipment. While full suspension bikes offer amazing riding characteristics, the classic hardtail remains one of the purest tools for the job. Our 29er wheel equipped BIG.NINE range comes in carbon and aluminium and features multiple geometry options. The carbon and LITE framed BIG.NINE, with its racing geometry, is an ideal companion on XC and marathon race tracks whilst the more relaxed geometry of the BIG.NINE TFS and SPEED offers a more comfortable, upright riding position. Our classic hardtails are the backbone of our range and showcase the enormous wealth of experience and knowledge we could gain in almost half a century of bike production and manufacturing. The BIG.NINE range symbolises the symbiosis between modern frame technology, attention to detail and craftsmanship 'Made in Taiwan'.
