Note: The 2021 models are carryover from last year, and the 2022 models are new for this season. Some bikes do not come with pedals, and if you would like to test ride one, please let us know in advance so we can make sure the bike is built and ready to go.
Our bike tech is only available by appointment on certain days. Bikes may need to be fine tuned after purchase, and we are not responsible for any extra tuning that may be required. Bike sales are final, and non-refundable. Please ask if you have any questions prior to purchase.*
*Note: Bicycles are only availble for in store pick up at our Old Forge, NY location. We can not ship bicycles.*

Weight
The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
Highlights
Built on a lightweight ALUXX aluminum frame that features classic hardtail design and the balanced riding characteristics of either larger diameter 29-inch or 27.5-inch wheels, Talon is a great choice for XC and trail riding. The frame geometry is specifically designed to adapt to its respective wheel size and either an 80mm or 100mm suspension fork (depending on frame size). It’s a confident ride that’s perfect for ambitious riders who want to take their off-road skills to the next level.
