Bike info

One of the most versatile bikes in our range, the Define AL 130 could be a quiver killer for any mountain biker. It sits right in the middle of the panorama of categories and can be used for anything from long distance rides to fun days out at the bike park. The adjustable BB height option let’s you dial the bike to your riding style - more pedal friendly or more planted on the descents, you can choose. Don't be fooled by the “shortness” of this bike’s travel. It really feels like it has much more than the quoted numbers. At the same time, the climbing capabilities of this bike are absolutely amazing. As with all our other bikes, we believe that it’s big wheels and proper geometry - not the amount of travel - that define what a bike can do.

 

MAIN FEATURES

alloy frame with custom hydroformed tubes & double pass welds
Adjustable BB height
Progressive geometry with 44mm fork rake
140mm front/130mm rear travel
Fox Performance suspension (34 + DPS)
X-FUSION MANIC dropper post
SRAM GX 1x12 derailleur
SRAM Guide R brakes

The beautiful carbon Define is now available in metal. It was a big challenge to translate the complex lines of this bike to another material, and we have sweated every detail of this high-end alloy frame to make it as light and as sexy as possible. Some of the unique features include an adjustable BB height and semi-integrated cable guides - a practical and elegant solution of the internal/external cable routing dilemma. Big sealed pivots keep it stable and guarantee long periods of smooth, service free function. There are a few things that we borrowed directly from the Snabb - and that is the kinematics of the 4-bar suspension that everyone loves (Pinkbike: "There is so little pedal-induced bobbing at play here that it sort of boggles the mind”).

ADJUSTABLE BB HEIGHT *

You can raise the BB height by 5mm from the stock settings by using the adjustable shock mount or you can completely transform the bike by changing the shock mount & shock (changes travel from 155 mm to 130 mm or vice versa).

 

* DIFFERENT LENGHTS OF SHOCK MOUNTS AVAILABLE SEPARATELY

OVERSIZED BEARINGS, SEALED MAIN PIVOT

The pivot that is most difficult to replace is hidden inside the frame and remains completely isolated from dirt and water inside the frame.

HYBRID CABLE ROUTING 

The cables appear to be threaded through the downtube and chainstay...

 

 

But actually, they are only hidden in a special channel in the construction. Easy to replace anytime, anywhere!
