Details

Timberjack XT 29 perfects the formula for trail fun. It combines the rollover of 29 x 2.6" tires with agile trail geometry, 130mm of suspension up front, and a dropper post for a bike that craves off-road thrill-seeking. The adjustability of our Alternator dropouts enables a wide variety of drivetrain options and ride characteristics. To top it all off, Shimano XT components provide flawless shifting so you can focus on the ride. Timberjack is an aggressive and versatile 29er trail hardtail that’s up for anything you are.

Plus-size rims and tires

Wider than standard yet narrower than fat, plus-size rims and tires hit the sweet spot in grip, stability, and speed, giving you more confidence on technical terrain. Compared to a standard tire you’ll feel grip in places you wouldn’t expect thanks to a bigger contact patch and greater rollover clearance. More air volume allows lower tire pressures which softens bumps and increases float on sand or snow. Whether you’re a novice or an expert, the benefits of plus-size tires and rims will amplify your mountain biking fun.

Dropper posts

A dropper seatpost allows you to quickly lower and raise your seat to give you an ideal riding position. Dropping your seat creates a lower center of gravity for better control and maneuverability on steep descents, while raising it puts you at normal riding height for efficient pedaling.

Construction can include either hydraulic- or cable-actuated systems and the post’s travel can either be infinitely adjustable or stopped at set intervals, depending on the model.

Dropper seatposts come in standard lengths and diameters and vary by the amount of travel.
