The Unity is a rigid steel mountain bike built for carrying a load into remote places, and it's unapologetically different. Everything about it is designed around bikepacking, from the geometry tuned for loaded riding to the big front triangle that swallows a frame bag and the head-tube-mounted aluminium front rack.
A butted Cromoly frame and fork give a comfortable, durable ride, while mixed wheels, a 29" front and 27.5" rear, both wrapped in 3.0" WTB Ranger TCS Tough tyres on i40 rims, deliver huge grip and flotation on loose or soft ground. Sliding dropouts keep wheel and drivetrain set-up flexible.
The parts are chosen to keep working a long way from a bike shop: Shimano XT 11-speed Linkglide with an 11-50t cassette, Tektro Gemini four-piston brakes on thick 2.3mm 203mm rotors, and DT Swiss 370 hubs with an upgraded 36t ratchet. For 2027 it comes in Gloss Metallic Everglade.
