BIG HOOPS. BIG SPEED.<br />
We’re big believers in 29ers for racing, thanks to their roll-over-everything, trail-taming momentum. Last year’s Dakota D29<br />
bikes were incredible machines, a smart application of cutting-edge carbon technology with big hoops. And we upped the<br />
ante for 2012.<br />
We broke the molds for our big-wheel Team and Pro again (!), retooling to modify our BB30 shells to take advantage of the benefits<br />
of the PressFit 30 BB system – simple installation, improved bearing-to-shell interface, greater bearing durability and the<br />
pedaling power of that 30mm spindle. Our tapered head tube significantly stiffens the control center, and that pays dividends<br />
with 29-inch rolling stock, letting you muscle out of ruts and really improving all-around control authority.<br />
We offer a lightweight XC 2x10 drivetrain on the Team and a more versatile 3 x10 drivetrain on the Pro, both with oversized<br />
180mm front brake rotors and 15mm front thru-axles for big-fisted stopping power and incredibly precise steering that’s a<br />
perfect matchup for those giant treads.<br />
And we’re introducing an aluminum version (with carbon stays for soaking up the trail) that won’t soak your budget – the D29<br />
Race. The Dakota D29 series is the new hardtail standard for high-speed racing or long, epic days on the trail.<br />
