METROPOLIS 2

The Metropolis is a dedicated dirt jumping bike. You can take it straight out of the box and head to Mellowpark to practice your 360 nosedives, or even go for a big backflip at a Crankworx event. If you are not planning to go so far, hit the streets and practice some off-the-bank tailwhips. The bike is ready for this kind of stuff because it has all the features of a modern pro-level dirt bike. The geometry and parts have been chosen by our top riders, therefore the build is significantly different than what you normally find in “corporate” bikes.

The Metropolis 2 continues into 2015 as our middle-of-the-range dirt bike. Built around a full cromoly NS frame with press fit BB, fitted with NS aftermarket components, a compact drive train and hydraulic brake this classic remains hard to beat.
