Grin-inducing progressive geometry paired with a tough frame and long travel fork to soak up punishment make it ready to go.
The BIG.TRAIL 600 is the top dog of our progressive trail hardtail lineup. The third generation of our trail hardtail builds on an award-winning heritage – and it turns things up a notch. It’s more capable and fun than ever, thanks to new geometry that boosts the descending ability to scary-fast levels and the climbing ability up to ‘mountain goat’. We’ve also made sure the show is as good as the go, with sleeker and more refined looks, plus extra frame protection to keep it that way.
The BIG.TRAIL is back and better than ever! Hailed by the international mountain bike press as one of the best trail hardtails around, we’ve tweaked it so it goes up, down and along even faster – which obviously means more fun. With updated, progressive geometry, the new BIG.TRAIL builds on an incredibly successful heritage, with a slack head angle and extended reach helping tame the gnarliest trails and a steeper seat angle that makes climbing up to do it again a breeze. We’ve also given it a slicker and tricker look and improved the frame protection too, so it’ll stay looking good for longer. Join the BIG.TRAIL family and enjoy hassle-free trail fun in spades. Available from XSmall to XLarge, perfect for finding your preferred size and reach options.
