Yeti Cycles SB6 Carbon X01 ENVE  2015 Release

Yeti Cycles SB6 Carbon X01 ENVE  2015 Release - Yeti's all-new SB6 Carbon frameset is the steroidal sibling with the company's revolutionary fresh SB5 Carbon, the 5 being an any-trail rig thus capable it threatens in order to cannibalize even Yeti's different lineup. Aimed in the biggest trails, the most important lines, and the most important gaps you may muster, however, the SB6 creates its focus distinct when you take a look The SB6 X01 complete bike when viewed from various elements as gnar when they come. So what may make it better? A wheel upgrade from none other than ENVE. The result can be a machine called this 2015 Yeti SB6 Carbon X01 ENVE Finish Mountain Bike, and everything that can be done upon it.

MEGA HOOPS ON A MEGA MACHINE.

Primary, let's look in the new suspension software, called Switch Infinity — an evolution with the Switch Link applied to the famous SB6, this SB75, and a few other Yetis. Like Change Link, the Switch Infinity slider travels upward within the first phase regarding compression, when this SB6 is paying off into its sag position. As the rear end compresses deeper, this direction changes, and also the slider travels down toward the lower bracket shell. Deep within the stroke, it works with the upper pivot to produce a vertical wheel path that effortlessly flattens major, square-edged impacts. Consider it as what has earned this Switch Link such high praise, except which it rides smoother which is easier to maintain than the previous eccentric pivot. And as it travels in some sort of perfectly linear planes, instead of this tight arc that will Switch Link yields, Switch Infinity has allowed Yeti to achieve a couple of unique suspension characteristics.

Undoubtedly, there will be those that balk at the thought of having a relatively shaft which is rather difficult , but in reality it's shaft is lighter and easy to use friendly than the Switch Link pivot which it replaces. The lightness may be attributed to this Kashima-coated mini-stanchions in addition to feathery forged taxi, which were co-developed along with FOX Racing Shox. Ease of use comes courtesy with the easily-accessible grease ports, which do away while using need for time-consuming rebuilds. FOX has properly tested production units to approximately a million compression setting cycles while totally submerged in mud. And the strength is further proven with the three-year-old test units that are still in work with today. Sure, Change Infinity may search different, but it’s not any gimmick — it includes riders functional advantages that can’t be performed with traditional rotates.

As incredible because it is, however, Switch Infinity will be of little good if it weren't paired through an equally overachieving software. Yeti didn't simply bolt bigger suspension parts to its more compact trail machine, the new SB5. They needed to distinguish the machine as its very own. The 6's carbon construction and geometry characterize complete revisions. The ultra-stiff layups with the SB5 chassis were being made even more rigid, the head conduit was relaxed even more for more extreme descending, and the wheelbase has been lengthened for additional high-speed stability — not forgetting the bumping regarding front and rear happen to be 160mm and 152mm, respectively. From the words of among Yeti's own tribesman, they will designed the SB6 with regard to "running into issues, " and yes, you can run into, over, and through damn near anything for this bike.

The bike's build helps with that mission, far too. Witness the 160mm SIBEL FLOAT 36 Manufacturing plant fork, pairing perfectly while using FLOAT X rear shock, both which receive FOX's Kashima shell for increased endurance and durability. A SRAM X1 prank powers the lighting and fast X01 single-ring drivetrain to the ultimate in hill bike shifting in addition to reliability. Thomson's Covert dropper publish boosts versatility and lets you go bigger (size XS in addition to S models start using a RockShox Reverb post). And these are going bigger, the East Destruction 35mm stem in addition to carbon bar embrace the latest standard for firmness and durability. As i have said, it all rolls with a fanastic set of hoops that are arguably the best it is possible to stick on this SB6: ENVE M70/Thirty rims laced to DT Switzerland 240 hubs, wrapped up throughout Maxxis High Roller II tires to the true ultimate throughout big-bike capability.

The 2015 Yeti SB6 Carbon X01 ENVE Finish Mountain Bike will come in five sizes, through X-Small to X-Large, and within the colors Turquoise, Eco-friendly, and Black. Pedals are not included.
