FAQ
-
So, what’s the difference between Syncline DR and Syncline C?
First, the frame: DR is full-sus with modern geometry built for today’s gnarlier XC tracks. The setup is different too, and yes - it’s UDH-ready.
-
Why the names Syncline C and DR?
It’s in the name: “C” stands for Carbon XC/Trail, while “DR” means Dual-sus Race. Easy to remember, easy to get the vibe.
-
How about compared to the Siskiu D?
On paper the travel looks similar, but the ride intention is worlds apart. The DR is a pure-bred XC racer - full carbon and speed-focused. The Siskiu D leans more into trail fun, off-road exploring, and leisure rides. That’s why the geometry and spec are tuned differently.
-
Can I run a 36T chainring?
Yep, up to 36T no problem. You’ve got the freedom to pick the gear ratio that fits your riding style.
-
Is the Syncline DR efficient for climbing compared to a hardtail?
Yes. Even with rear suspension, the lightweight carbon frame and efficient single-pivot design keep it sharp on climbs, giving you traction without losing power transfer.
-
How much does it weigh?
DR9: 11.68 Kg (size M)
DR8: 12.9 Kg (size M)
DR6: 13.38 Kg (size M) -
What’s the travel and why?
110mm rear / 120mm front. Enough to handle modern XC courses (which are rougher and steeper than ever).
-
Can it fit two water bottles?
Yes!
