2013 Long Travel AM/FR Bikes

Have been looking the last week or so at the diiferent AM/FR bikes out there on the market for 2013. When looking for a bike angles, adjustability, durability and weight all play a roll. Having ridden just about every suspension system out there I can attest there are slight difference but am not hung up on any one design. Below are some of the bikes I have been looking over.

2013 Specialized Enduro Expert EVO

The 165mm-travel M5 aluminum Enduro Expert EVO is an all-mountain machine desigened to rip on denscents. With a Cane Creek Double Barrel Coi shock, 170mm-travel coil-sprung Fox 36 Van RC2 fork and custom Avid X0 Trail World Cup hydraulic disc brakes the Enduro Expert EVO blurs the line between DH and All Mountain.

  • All-new, fully manipulated M5 alloy FSR frame with ORE tubing is the centerpiece of this incredibly versatile 180mm-travel design; featuring sealed cartridge bearing pivots, 142mm + dropouts, ISCG '05 mount, and replaceable derailleur hanger
  • Cane Creek Double Barrel coil shock provides a rider's dream of externally adjustable high-and-low-speed rebound and compression settings for maximum control over challenging terrain
  • FOX 36 Van RC2 Kashima 180mm coil-sprung fork with 20mm thru-axle, tapered alloy steerer, and preload and rebound adjust for all-mountain shredding and aggressive descending
  • Specialized Butcher SX 2.3" dual-compound tires for premium traction on challenging terrain
  • Custom SRAM S2200 carbon double All-Mountain crankset with 36/24 gearing is built for strong ,yet lightweight performance; features a Gamut bashguard for added protection and chain retention
  • All-new Sip Grip, a lock-on, Aramid infused, half-waffle MTB grip boosts durability, comfort and control
  • Avid X0 Trail World Cup hydraulic disc brakes with four-piston calipers deliver powerful stopping performance with a lightweight trail-friendly package.
  • New SRAM Type 2 X0 mid cage 10-speed rear derailleur provides crisp and reliable gear changes
  • Specialized Command Post BlackLite uses a remote lever to adjust the saddle height on-the-fly to maximize climbing and descending performance

2013 Ibis Mojo HD

The Mojo HD is the longer travel bigger brother to the Mojo and Mojo SL. The “HD” as we call it, has 160mm of rear wheel travel, up 20mm from the other Mojos. The 140mm travel Mojo, which we introduced in 2005, pioneered efficient, lightweight long travel suspension, blurring the lines between those previously separate categories. The Mojo HD takes this concept a step further, giving riders another level of skill and confidence in nearly every situation, combined with uncanny climbing prowess.

  • 160mm of rear wheel travel
  • dw-link Suspension
  • includes 2013 Fox Float RP23 CTD Boost Valve rear shock w/Trail Adjust, Kashima coating
  • 26" Wheels
  • Weight for the frame and shock, size medium, matte finish: 6.5 lbs, 2.93Kg (~.1 lb difference between sizes and for painted frame)
  • 67 degree head angle with a 160mm fork
  • Optional polycarbonate down tube cable guard
  • Chain stay length: 17.125?
  • 12 x 142mm Maxle rear axle (bikes manufactured before July '11 were 12 x 135 Maxle)
  • 160mm post mount left dropout, carbon fiber
  • Compatible with the new tapered steerer standard: 1 1/8th hidden upper, 1.5 traditional lower
  • Compatible with both Chris King InSet and Cane Creek Frustum headsets.
  • If you want to run your current straight 1 1/8? fork, adapters available
  • 2.35?-2.55? rear tire depending on brand and height of cornering knobs
  • Dual row angular contact bearings in the front of the lower link that have less play than standard sealed bearings. Preload adjustment is not necessary. Large 28mm x 15mm x 7mm radial bearings in the rear for stiffness and long wear
  • The leverage ratio, like the Mojo SL, is optimized for air shocks. The Mojo HD comes with a 8.5? x 2.5? Fox RP23. A DHX air will work on all but the small size.
  • With the advent of the new Fox RC4 coil rear shock, we've revised our stance on coil. The late stroke (bottom-out) knob enables a progressive end to the travel, perfect for the HD
  • The Bottom Bracket height is 13.8?-14? depending on tires
  • Front derailleur (if you use one) and adjustable seatpost housing (if you use one) run along the top tube
  • Direct mount front derailleur standard as of July 2011

2013 Banshee Rune

I designed the Rune as a true explorers bike. It has the performance to make exploring new terrain easy and enjoyable, allows the rider to explore the limits of their ability, and to help them progress in confidence and ability. Lots of bikes out there shout claims of being "all mountain" bikes, but I have ridden a lot of them, and found them lacking. Most of them feel like wet noodles when you are pushing it and riding hard due to the frames flexing underneath you, and very few are equally capable of going both up and down challenging terrain.

For the Rune, I wanted the stiffness of a freeride bike but without the weight, as well as the pedaling efficiency of an XC bike. By carefully designing the frame both in terms of structural integrity and rigidity, and carefully planning the axle path, anti-squat and leverage ratio, I have created the bike that I had in my mind. If I had only one bike, it would be a Rune. I am happy riding this bike for 40 mile all day epics, as well as shredding down DH courses boosting jumps and railing berms.

Everyone has a slightly different opinion of what an all mountain bike should be. So in order to keep everyone happy, I made the Rune a versatile bike by adding a full 1.5" head tube. This allows riders to change the bike feel and geometry not only by changing between traditional and zero stack headsets to suit their fork choice, but it also opens up the option of using angle reducer cups if you want to slacken and lower the bike a for more DH feel. The Rune is compatible with both air and coil shocks, so you can choose what best suits your needs - generally coil for more freeride minded, and air for more epic minded.

The Rune can truly do it all. It can climb with the lycra brigade, and descend with armor clad full facers, but most of all the Rune is a bike that will put a smile on your face every time you ride it.
