The Elite is born again.
The link between track and rider, the pain and pleasure, the taking part and the winning. This year we’re re igniting the old race flame. The Elite is bringing the hard men back to the fore.
Experience and heritage laced with technology to create a bike that takes everything from the old and combines it with the new. XC is still sublimely simple, pedal as hard as you can from start to finish, all the Elite does is provide the edge. No carbon wizardry, just the finest quality custom double-butted aluminum tube set. Stiffness and rigidity that delivers instant power and forces every last inch out of your pedal stroke.
This is the best XC hardtail we have ever produced.
Geometry is whipped towards aggression with a 70° head angle and 73° seat angle. This is about XC finesse but without an over-the-bar cockpit feel, an XC bike you can ride with sure-footed confidence. A tapered head tube adds front-end stiffness with our signature wishbone keeping things rigid and accurate at the back.
Don’t compromise on the racetrack or your local trails, become part of the Orange Elite.
