Lightweight and Sleek

The durable yet lightweight ALUXX-grade aluminum frame with an Advanced-grade composite fork offer a smooth and forgiving ride, handy when you find yourself on the road less traveled. The redesigned geometry puts you in a more performance-oriented position and gives you added control whether you’re picking up speed or detouring downhill to the swimming hole.

Superior Comfort and Control

The Contact XR D-Fuse handlebar features a 5-degree back sweep and flare drop for a comfortable and ergonomic grip. The Contact D-Fuse seatpost can be swapped out for a 30.9mm or 27.2mm round seatpost. These proprietary D-Fuse components absorb bumps and reduce vibrations, ensuring less fatigue and more fun on those epic rides.

Unmatched Versatility

Adapt to the route with the flip chip – dropout, which lets you adjust your wheelbase length and rear-wheel tire clearance. Go shorter for responsive handling and quick acceleration. Go longer for added stability plus clearance for larger tires and extra traction.
