This big wheeled Enduro / All Mountain bike is the monster truck of the Snabb range. A whopping 150mm of travel in the rear and a massive 160mm fork paired with the 29” wheels really make it capable of rolling over anything at any speed. In this case, size does matter! If you've got what it takes, take this bike. These few words from Dirt Mountain Bike magazine sum up this bike: “How does the NS compared to the other machines that we have in the list? To be straight. Very well. Stable on the straights and nimble in the turns. When sending the bike into the abyss, over shooting a jump, the suspension took it like a champ. (...) This really is up in the top end of the ranks. Would I buy this bike? It is most definitely on the short list with a select few that i would.”

Keep up with the guys on DH rigs in a bike park on one day and then do an epic ride with your mates on XC rigs on the next. Widely praised for performance and reliability the Snabb is the most complete mountain bike we can imagine.
The massive one piece rocker arm makes the rear triangle incredibly stable and drives the new generation of shocks with a trunion mount - longer, bigger, better. The suspension kinematics are dialled to perfection (“There is so little pedal-induced bobbing at play here that it sort of boggles the mind” - Pinkbike) and the geometry is modern, low, long and slack. The frames are built to DH racing standards in both alloy and carbon versions and run on high-end MAX bearings for prolonged periods of smooth, service free use. The Snabb range includes the all-out enduro bikes which come in 27.5” and 29” wheel sizes. These are basically mini-DH bikes can also ride uphill - and can do it very quickly. Those of you who want to spend a little more time pedalling should check out the the lighter Snabb 130 Plus version.
REVIEWS:
„The downhiller's 29er? A lot of bikes have been given that handle, but the Snabb Plus might be the most deserving of it. Long, low, slack, capable...NS has made a bike that is truly at its best when ridden hard and fast over technical terrain.” - Pinkbike
“Would I buy this bike? It is most definitely on the short list with a select few that i would.” - Dirt Magazine
”It amazed the test riders with a comfortable position and well balanced suspension. They couldn’t believe there were riding the 29-er.” - Freeride Magazine
