Dragon. Where Steel is Still Real.For some riders, steel will always be the ultimate frame material, with ride quality, resonance and resilience that’sunmatched. And if that’s the philosophy you subscribe to, Dragon is the pinnacle of that lofty performance peak.We cut our teeth on steel hardtails when mountain bikes were a new thing, when steel was all there was, andgeometry made all the difference in the world. And we kept chipping away at it, fine-tuning our geometry while takingadvantage of ever-lighter, ever-stronger tubesets and better components. And somewhere along the way, we builtourselves a reputation for crafting the very best steel performers on the trail.We’ve never stopped defending that rep, and improving it where we could. And we’re proud to say our steel hardtailshave never been better. These are race-worthy right out of the crate, with that signature all-day ride and perfectlytuned, nimble, pick-your-line-and-stick-it handling every steel junky craves.Roll up on a Dragon, and people will know: There’s a rider who Knows.DRAGON PRODRAGON COMPTaking advantage of the high tensilestrength of steel without having to worryabout strength degradation due to weldingis incredibly liberating. Welding steel oftenresults in a 40% strength loss, requiringthick tubing walls as an offset. Not so withthe air-hardened Reynolds 853 and 631steel alloys used on our Dragon frames. Thismaterial actually gets stronger at the weldzones, allowing Reynolds to draw the tubingthinner for a lighter, stronger frame.Frame Reynolds 853 seamless air-hardened chromoly main tubes, reinforced head tube collars, double-butted chromoly stays, Jamis lost wax dropoutsFork Fox 32FRL, air spring with lockout & external rebound damping adjustor ,F.I.T.

We use heat sinks in thehead and seat tubes to control distortion.And our low angle welding tracks formprecisely arced, low-profile TIG beads thatdisperses heat more evenly, requiring lesspost-welding frame alignment.Available as framesetVictory Red/Pearl WhiteSizes: 13”, 15”, 17”, 19”, 21”Weight: 24.75 lbsMash Metallic/BoneSizes: 13”, 15”, 17”, 19”, 21”Weight: 28.50 lbs40 41
