ECCENTRIC CROMO

The concept of a tough trail hardtail makes a lot of sense for many riders. The Eccentric will cover a lot of ground - epic all-day trips, pumptrack sessions and everything else in between too. Simple and beautiful.

The heart of the bike is a high-end cromoly frame built using Tange Eccentric cromoly tubes that have been developed over the years for our dirt-jump bikes. The result is an incredibly strong yet light hardtail for aggressive trail riding. It's designed around 650B wheels and a 142x12 hub. The weight of the frame is approximately 2.4kg which is light by any standards, but don't worry, it's strong enough to hold up to a lot of abuse. All the know-how that NS has managed to acquire over the years in building steel hardtails has been funnelled into the frame of this bike and it really is the very best money can buy. The complete bike is fitted with a selection of NS Bikes components, high performance Sram brakes, X-Fusion Velvet fork and a 1x10 Sram drivetrain with 42t climbing cog.
