The Lowdown takes everything we learned developing our full suspension line, and directs it into a long travel bruiser. We still have a penchant for 4130 steel, 29" wheels, slack head tube angles (63.5°) and steeper seat tube angles (79°), but now we've paired all of that with 170mm up front and 158mm out back.

The way we see it, we're still drawing strongly on our hardtail roots and design philosophy, we just removed one more constraint.

NEW! Our Mullet link allows you to run a 27.5" rear wheel, while maintaining the same geometry, travel and kinematics. 27.5" rear wheel is sold separately.
