Vitus Sommet 297 CR Mountain BikeThe Sommet 297 CR combines the best of both modern enduro-racing wheel sizes, offering the best of high-speed control, all-terrain comfort and responsiveness. It features a carbon/alloy frame that rolls upon a 29" front wheel and a 27.5" rear that gives the ultimate balance of playfulness and stability for enduro racing and long-distance all-mountain adventures. Vitus has equipped it with long-travel RockShox Domain forks and Super Deluxe Select rear shock to smooth out the terrain while ensuring you experience outstanding traction in all conditions. It is equipped with a wide-range Shimano Deore 12-Speed groupset with hydraulic disc brakes and it rolls upon Tubeless Ready WTB KOM Trail i30 rims wrapped in high-grip Maxxis tyres. This bike is also armed with a Brand-X Ascend Dropper seatpost and a high-quality finishing kit from Nukeproof.Agile, Versatile and Stylish Enduro Mountain BikeWhether new to the black runs or a seasoned full-face enduro thrill seeker, the Vitus Sommet CR 297 Mountain Bike delivers the rush. The rush of air, the rush of trees passing you in a blur, the rush of tyres through dirt, the rush of light, the rush of sounds - the brief snapshots that flood your senses and place you confidently in the zone.And then there's the rush that boils up inside you and the feeling of total control as you float from take-off to landing and rip down descents, from bike park to big mountain. The rush as you roll out at the bottom of the trail and chase one last uplift. The rush that pushes you to explore your limits without overstepping the mark. This is why you do it.RockShox Suspension and Shimano Deore 12-Speed GroupsetThe Sommet 297 CR has been developed to run a mullet wheel setup. A 27.5” rear wheel gives you more clearance over the back for steep ground and is responsive through tight corners, while a stable 29” wheel at the front eats up rocky terrain and keeps momentum high. You're getting the versatility of both wheel sizes in one bike. With volume added to the carbon front triangle, stability is rock solid without compromising agility. This balanced ride and reliable Shimano components will inspire you to graduate onto trails that may otherwise have felt out of reach. It's not a bike for taking just any line, it's a bike for taking the best line. A bike that tracks so accurately it rewards you with time. Time to line up the next obstacle and pick your route as the trail unfolds in front of you.Carbon/Alloy Long-Travel Enduro Race BikeThe Sommet is a bike that you sit within, not perch on top. Eagerly build your confidence on the refined berms and manicured features of a trail centre, but pedal into the wild and that's where this bike really comes alive. Whether threading the needle through Enduro tape or dropping in on your favourite trail, speed comes easily to the Sommet CR. It thrives in the chaos of challenging trails. Bringing calm, and fun, where all around there is frenzy.

FEATURESThe all-new Chisel has been purpose-built to tackle modern cross country trails and race courses with the utmost speed. In fact, it shares many of the same modern features as its Epic Hardtail sibling, but in a more budget-friendly package—making it the most efficient and capable alloy hardtail out there. This Chisel comes spec'd with SRAM's tried and true SX Eagle 1x12 speed drivetrain and Level T hydraulic disc brakes, a RockShox Judy Silver fork, and 25mm internal width alloy wheels wrapped in 2.35 Fast Track Control casing tires.The Chisel's all-new frame utilizes our D'Aluisio Smartweld technology that moves the hydroformed tube joints away from the areas of the highest stress, making the finished frame's balance of strength, rigidity, and weight more pronounced than any alloy frame in history. This not only makes the Chisel one of the lightest alloy hardtail frames out there at 1,350g, but it also allows for tuned frame stiffness across all sizes.,The new Chisel also houses all of the modern features that you expect from an XC bike, like Progressive XC Geometry with a 68-degree headtube angle and longer reach, internal cable routing, a threaded bottom bracket, boost spacing, 30.9mm dropper post compatibility, and 1x-only drivetrains..
The 2021 Boardman MTR range of bikes are designed to be the perfect machines for all-round UK trail riding. Our brand new 29er platform with 145mm travel and trail-ready geometry is paired with 140 or 150mm forks and can take on rough and technical trails without being a burden on flatter, flowy sections. Longer reach figures, a slackened 66 degree head angle and custom-tuned, long-stroke RockShox shocks deliver composed handling and supple yet supportive suspension action whilst maintaining agility and pedalling efficiency.The MTR 9.0 is the flagship bike in the range, earning its 9 Series status thanks to an upgraded X9 Alloy frame with stunning paint fade and hidden welds with an uncompromising specification. A RockShox Pike Select fork offers 150mm of supple but progressive travel. Its plush Charger RC damper and stiff but light 35mm chassis keep the front wheel planted and on line. This is paired with a custom-tuned Deluxe Select+ rear shock with lock out and rebound adjustment, soaking up trail chatter without blowing through the 145mm travel.Shifting is courtesy of Shimano’s 12-speed SLX groupset with a 10-51t cassette giving crisp shifting and huge range – long steep climbs are no problem with this set up. Braking is also taken care of with Shimano SLX 4-piston calipers combined with 203/180mm rotors front and rear delivering plenty of power with outstanding modulation.A 2.5” Maxxis Minion DHF up front with a 2.4” DHRII at the back are a go-to pairing for loose and technical terrain. These tubeless ready, tan-wall tires are paired with WTB ST-i30 TCS rims on Shimano hubs which come pre-taped for tubeless set up with valves in the box – just add sealant to take advantage of the better grip and fewer punctures which come from ditching inner tubes.780mm bars paired with a 45mm stem keep the steering responsive but easy to control. Completing the package is a Satori Sorata Pro dropper post with 125mm travel on size M, and 150mm travel on L and XL sizes, meaning the Fizik Taiga saddle is tucked well out of the way when attacking steep descents.Key Features:New 29er platform with 145/150mm travel and UK trail focussed geometry,RockShox Pike Select fork and Deluxe Select+ shock give outstanding, easily tuneable suspension performance,Shimano SLX 4-piston brakes and 12 speed gears perform flawlessly,Maxxis Minion DHF & DHRII tyres on WTB ST-i30 rims just need sealant to run tubeless,Satori Sorata Pro dropper post allows maximum body movement on the bike.
