Description
Relentless speed and low weight uphill, paired with trail-hardtail swagger on the descents. The Big Nine TR 5000 is ready to push beyond what cross-country hardtails should do. We've added a longer travel 120 mm travel RockShox fork, more aggressive high-volume tyres and our own lightweight dropper post to a CF3 carbon frame that features progressive geometry and our Agilometer sizing.
