Confident Handling
New-school handling and mountain-ready components result in a modern, confidence-inspiring experience at a level where you might otherwise be expecting compromises. This is what fun looks like

Perfectly Framed
Be it your first time off-road or further afield on to your next ride, SE's new SmartForm aluminum frames come assembled with choice components making these bikes the complete, trail-ready package

Spec'd for More
S A longer travel 120mm fork, wider 760mm bars and a short stem sets the tone for this bike - combined with more aggressive 2.5"/2.3" tires, the SE handles the biggest trails

Premium Framesets
All-new progressive frame design blends the latest Trail-ready geometry with dropped seatstays for improved ride quality and a leaner look. Longer, lower, lighter and altogether more fun

Tapered Headtube
The standard for top-end mountain bikes. Light and stiff, it's designed for the 1-1/2" to 1-1/8" tapered steerer tubes found on the best suspension forks

SAVE Micro-suspension
delivers a smoother, more controlled ride thanks to strategically engineered flex zones built into the frame's rear triangle

Boost Spacing
Enabled by Boost spacing, Trail's short chainstays position the rear wheel optimally for climbing traction and agile handling

Confident Control
A slacker-than-average 66.5 degree head angle results in even more stable handling, giving you extra confidence when the trails point downhill

Right-Sized Wheels
All Trail SE sizes come with 29" wheels to deliver the best blend of fit, fast and fun for every rider.

StrightShot Internal Cable Routing
For an integrated look and easy maintenance, the shift and dropper post cables route cleanly through the Straight Shot window in the down tube, while the rear brake line is secured outside the frame.
