Great mountain bike experiences start right here! The new generation Talon brings a completely new frame with improved geometry and design. If you’re looking for a modern, comfortable and reliable mountain bike at a great price, the Talon meets all requirements. Whether you’ll be riding natural forest trails or heading to your favourite trail centre, the new Talon will bring you plenty of fun.

The all-new aluminium frame delivers not only a more modern design and geometry, but also lower weight. New features include a rear thru-axle (12x142 mm) and a head tube for a tapered fork steerer. Of course, there is internal cable routing including for a dropper seatpost, and there’s also an integrated chainstay protector. The frame is equipped with high-quality, reliable components including a modern 1x12 drivetrain.

ALUXX Aluminium Technology A frame material focused on performance cycling, featuring 6061 alloy with single-butted tubes. It’s used to produce stiff and lightweight framesets for various types of bikes and riding styles.

ALUXX frames made from high-quality aluminium alloy in our own factory deliver high stiffness and strength while keeping weight low. The modern trail geometry is fully optimised for 29” wheels, which bring greater stability (and therefore confidence) – and roll over trail obstacles more easily. They also have better momentum and excellent traction, which you’ll notice for example in corners or under braking.

An air fork with 100 mm travel and a 15x110 mm thru-axle will smoothly absorb all bumps. On descents and technical sections you’ll definitely appreciate the handlebar-controlled dropper seatpost, which makes riding safer and more fun. Wider handlebars improve control, and 2.4” wide tyres also add confidence. For braking, you can rely on hydraulic disc brakes.
