This project is something my friend Max has been fantasizing about for a long time (we’re talking years). I’ve always enjoyed talking bikes with Max so it was fun to design this with him. This guy has developed a big passion for DH racing and was looking for something to develop his fitness base on. This is probably the closest thing to a cross country bike you’ll see him on, I call it an aggressive all mountain 29er. Max has been talking about a bike for all day epics, something for logging miles and doing work. We kept the cockpit similar to his big bikes, including the use of a 31.5″ handlebar!
