OUR HARDEST-HITTING HARDTAIL KEEPS COMING BACK FOR MORE. THIS IS WHERE THE FUN STARTS: MULLET SETUP, A LONG, SLACK AND LOW FRAME AND A BURLY FORK UP FRONT.
-
DESCRIPTION
A hardcore hardtail is the original UK trail ripper and that's what our Mantra Elite is all about.
Tearing up the loam, slicing through slop or taking on the bikeparks, there's no trail the Mantra can't call home.
A 6061 hydroformed and butted aluminium frame is matched to our tried and tested LSL geometry to provide the ultimate ride.
The Elite model brings a Marzocchi Bomber Z2 fork with 140mm of chunder-smoothing travel, making light work of the roughest trails.
A Shimano XT rear mech and SLX shifter work the wide-range 10-51 cassette making light work of the climbs, before reaping the rewards on the way back down.
Slam the 150mm KS Rage dropper as you plummet and test Magura's MT5 brakes to the limit, as the Maxxis Minion DHRII tyres provide predictable traction on every trail.
Shimano SLX hubs are matched with trail worthy DT Swiss XM421 rims for all mountain performance. Best of all, the whole package is tubeless ready - just add tape, valves and sealant to enjoy the full experience.
Please note - the Saracen Mantra does not come supplied with pedals. Add some from our gear store!
