XC, Reimagined.​

The new generation of Syncline: An XC, with full-sus control.
Cross-country racing isn’t what it used to be—and neither is the Syncline. The new Syncline DR takes everything we’ve learned from years of UCI racing and builds it into a carbon full- suspension machine made for the speed, precision, and intensity of modern XC. ​It’s your edge. For race day. For every day. For the chase.​

CROSS COUNTRY ?
We understand how mesmerizing mountains are and everything in it; the scents through the wind, the rocky climbs and descents, and the singletracks. So we built you bikes that keep you rolling on cross country to technical tracks. Faster to feel the wind and smoother to beat trails. Are you ready to be mesmerized more? See more...

Features

  • Fast but Composed

    With 110mm of efficient rear travel and 120mm up front, the Syncline DR’s single-pivot suspension balances speed with control — staying smooth through roots, planted in rock gardens, and precise in switchbacks.

  • No Watt Wasted

    Every pedal stroke drives straight into forward momentum through a lightweight carbon chassis and a threaded BSA73 bottom bracket for maximum stiffness and easy service.​

  • Locked in Precision

    Sleek internal routing keeps things quiet, while a 12x148mm Boost thru-axle and UDH hanger deliver rock-solid drivetrain stability when you’re battling for position and precise shifting under pressure.​

  • Traction, Wherever You Need It

    From rocky climbs to muddy sprints, with 29x2.35 tires, the Syncline DR delivers added grip, smoother comfort, and confident control.​

  • Geometry Made for Modern XC

    With modern geometry and a 4-bar flex-stay suspension platform, the Syncline DR is built to take on today’s increasingly demanding XC courses.​
