Technology
Thrilling Performance
Combining 140mm front travel with 135mm rear travel, the T-140 RS delivers the perfect blend of impeccable rough terrain control and pedalling efficiency, with a balanced ride that will have you attacking every trail with confidence and speed while still delivering that rush of involvement and reward. All combined so you can go further and faster, with the confidence to play hard, wherever the trail takes you.
Light, Tough And Versatile
The T-140 RS's alloy frame is lightweight, tough, dependable and backed with an extended lifetime frame warranty, lifetime bearing warranty (just register for free within 28 days of purchase to activate) and unique weather sealing features. Our switchable Shape.It link also means you can adjust the geometry from its stock high setting to low to slacken the head angle out by 0.7º and reduce the bottom bracket height by 8mm for a more aggressive, gravity-focused ride character.
Smoothly Fast
29in wheels (aka ‘29er’) are the fastest, smoothest-rolling size for out-and-out speed and performance – whether you're riding far or riding for fun. Rolling on this larger wheel size and dressed with broad RaceFace tubeless rims and top-spec Maxxis tyres, the T-140 RS makes light work of roots, rocks, and anything else the trail throws your way.
