Extra Coil

Laps in the bike park, the Megavalanche, or enduro races, the EXTRA Coil can handle it all. With a 165mm travel coil shock, the rear suspension is super responsive to small bumps, and our Dual Pivot Suspension System ensures that the travel is evenly and progressively released, preventing bottoming out even on big jumps.

The revised geometry, with its low bottom bracket, gives you an extra boost of confidence to confidently tackle challenging sections. The Mullet setup can transform into a 29" bike using the FlipChip without altering the bottom bracket height, turning it from a playful park bike into a purebred enduro racing beast.

Extra Air

The view ahead: slowly, the contours of the summit emerge in the sky, the path gradually becomes steeper and narrower until it becomes unrideable. Hike the bike - it's not too far anymore. Somehow like a race. A race with the sun, which you just won. You reach the summit before it sends the first rays over the mountain range on the horizon. Ahead lies over 1800 meters of downhill fun. A trail that seems endless and offers everything a biker's heart desires. For moments like these, the EXTRA Air is made: the combination of low weight and a steep seat angle takes the sting out of long climbs. Then, thanks to the 160mm of travel, 29" wheels, and modern geometry, you can simply enjoy the descent.
