Hard-hitting and ready to rock. The ONE-SIXTY FR 800 takes our award-winning aluminium enduro frame and pumps up the attitude for hard riders and bike park heavy hitters. Mixed-size DT Swiss wheels deliver fun handling and bombproof reliability, while the assured performance of a RockShox Zeb Ultimate 180 mm fork and Vivid Ultimate Coil shock at the rear are all controlled by our FAST kinematic suspension so you can send hard, run after run. Quality suspension needs quality brakes, so SRAM's Maven stoppers can haul you up fast, while Shimano's dependable Deore does drivetrain duties.
The ONE-SIXTY FR builds on the solid platform of our award-winning ONE-SIXTY, but cranks the volume up. It's built tough so that you can hit the bike park all day long, or just rip the toughest tracks and trails time after time, safe in the knowledge that the bike won't let you down. To boost the capability, we've added in longer travel forks pushing out 180 mm travel paired with coil shocks delivering 171 mm of rear wheel travel, mounted on our tough aluminium chassis. All bikes run a mixed 29" front and 27.5" rear wheel size for maximum manoeuvrability, whether you're ripping turns or sending it hard. However, you can switch to a full 29er setup without impacting the geometry, thanks to our flip-chip system. Our AGILOMETER sizing allows riders to run a longer or shorter reach frame independently of their height. At the same time, the suspension becomes more progressive as you size up, and all bikes are fitted with long-travel dropper posts.
