Races don’t win themselves, which is why marathon racing demands a light, agile, efficient and comfortable bike. The Elite C:68X Race ticks all those boxes and more, so you can ride further and faster than ever. Everything about this bike has been designed to be lightweight and fast. The full C:68X carbon frame is manufactured using an Advanced Twin Mold monocoque manufacturing technique, resulting in one of the lightest cross-country hardtails around. Agile Ride Geometry puts you firmly in control, while the optimised carbon lay-up, tapered head tube and Boost rear axle translate into rapid acceleration, so you can power ahead of the competition. The Newmen Evolution SL tubeless-ready wheelset, lightweight yet aggressive Schwalbe XC race tyres and 100mm RockShox SID Ultimate fork, combined with Magura MT8 SL Hydraulic brakes and 1 x 12 Speed SRAM XX1 Eagle Drivetrain ensure a premium setup that combines rapid acceleration, complete control and exceptional comfort.
