Go hard without breaking the bank
Sythe S delivers the confidence and control you need for steep, rough and demanding trails in a high value, high performance package: progressive, proportionally-sized geometry and capable long-travel Quad-Link 4 suspension keep handling stable and predictable when speeds rise and terrain gets technical, while balanced performance makes climbing back up feel efficient and manageable. Tough, dependable and dressed in trail-proven components, with weather-sealed durability and MX (mixed/'mullet') wheels for clearance when things get steep, Sythe S is designed for real-world riding, and ready to handle both year-round abuse and the biggest days on the hill alike. 

Highlights

– 6061 hydroformed T6 multi-butted alloy frame + geometry adjustment.
– Proportional sizing delivers perfect fit and uncompromised handling for every rider.
– Shimano Deore 1x12 transmission (30T chainring x 10-52T cassette).

Sythe S  Enduro & gravity mountain bike

Perfect handling for everyone

Sythe S benefits from proportional sizing throughout the range, with specifically tuned dimensions, geometry, and front- and rear-centres designed to deliver balanced handling and uncompromised gravity performance for every rider. By refining fit, weight distribution and ride dynamics for each frame size, Sythe S stays planted, stable and predictable when trails get steep, rough and fast — delivering greater control, more confidence and a composed ride feel whether charging bike park laps, technical descents or full-gas enduro stages.

Switchable geometry

Our Shape.It Link flip-chip lets you fine-tune the Sythe S to match your riding style and terrain. Switch between the high and low settings to adjust geometry, slackening the head angle by 0.6 degrees and lowering the bottom bracket by 8mm in the low position. For maximum stability and a planted feel on steep, fast bike park laps and technical descents, run it low. Want a more responsive, efficient set-up for longer rides and big days in the hills? Keep it in the higher position for improved pedal clearance and all-day versatility.

Changeable wheelsize

Want to carry even more speed through rough terrain and high-speed lines? Our Shape.It link lets you convert Sythe S from its stock MX wheel set-up (mixed/'mullet' (29in front, 27.5in rear wheel) to a full 29er configuration (29in wheels front + rear) for maximum rollover performance and stability. Simply swap the stock Shape.It link for the 29er-specific version (58-62mm; WAMLINK08), together with a suitable category 4-rated 29in rear wheel, to retain full geometry adjustment between the high and low settings. The result is a faster, more planted ride feel built for charging through rock gardens, blown-out tracks and demanding enduro terrain. Please note: full 29er conversion is only possible on size M, L + XL frames only – not on size S.

Built to resist

The Sythe S alloy frame is built to handle full seasons of hard riding, whatever the weather. Weather-sealed cable ports, hose routing and seat clamp help keep water and grit out, while generous tyre clearance prevents mud build-up when conditions turn bad. Robust chainstay and downtube protection silence trail chatter and fend off rock strikes, and phosphate-coated, marine grease-packed pivot bearings are designed to keep performing through relentless wet-weather abuse. Add our lifetime extended frame and pivot bearing warranties* for extra peace of mind, and the Sythe S is ready for years of bike park laps, enduro stages and all-weather riding. Plus, if you want to run a chainguide for extra security, Sythe S's ISCG tabs are ready. Just add our WMCG1 chainguide.
