New CLASH: The big (r)evolution!With its 27.5-inch wheels, long travel and completely revised geometry and kinematics, the CLASH cements its place as a do-everything bike. Bike park, enduro, chilled or more technical rides... It always steps up no matter what!For 2021, the CLASH changes significantly.The geometry has been reviewed in depth. Uphill riding position is enhanced thanks to an elongated top tube and a straighter seat tube angle. Downhill, the longer reach will bring stability when things speed up, whilst the short stem will ensure a manoeuvrable and playful bike through slower sections. Even if it's definitely intended for riders of all shapes and sizes (from S to XL), with 27-inch wheels the CLASH is a particularly strong option for smaller people.Thanks to its new kinematics, the CLASH feels even more at home on the steepest freeride slopes. The icing on the cake, like its big brother the FURIOUS, the CLASH features a kinematic adjustment. This setting gives priority to either sensitivity (Sensitive) or dynamism (Dynamic). No need to make many concessions. The Sensitive mode is intended for DH/Freeride days when you need that comfort and grip. Dynamic mode is ideal for smoother tracks or jump sessions with friends for example, when you're looking for energy and flow.Though the CLASH doesn't change aesthetically, we've delivered a whole new frame; its behaviour and level of performance takes a huge step forward. Not surprising for a CLASH after all!About the CLASH OHLINS EDITIONThis is an ultra-high-end model so we have the best components. For suspension we chose the Swedish brand OHLINS. A TTX22 shock will delight spring suspension lovers because of its sensitivity and precision. The RXF36 fork on the front is also the best for really engaged riding, in particular thanks to its great precision and excellent hold. And the combination of yellow suspension details and our ???High Polished' paint is just perfect! SHIMANO XT 4-piston brakes are well-known in their field, so you can definitely rely on your brakes here. We also have SHIMANO XT 12-speed transmission, as reliable as it is precise. To finish in style, the DT SWISS custom wheels are designed specifically for our bikes. They feature one of the best enduro rims on the market today, the EX 511, as well as reliable and strong 350 hubs.
