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 RACEThe CLASH RACE looks explosive in this 'Matte Graphite' paint and its full black components.The RACE model features the best ROCKSHOX suspension currently on the market for enduro. On the front, the new Zeb Ultimate fork with 180mm travel and 38mm uppers. This fork offers all the necessary adjustments on the hydraulic side and with the fully redesigned Debonair air spring. For the rear shock we have the Super Deluxe Select Ultimate, all for maximum grip and performance on the most demanding terrain. The SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed transmission has a large 10-52t block. With reliability and accuracy assured, you can connect your trails with serenity and panache. The new SHIMANO SLX 4-piston brakes provide power, a true-feel and reliability. Finally, the SPANK Spike Race 33 wheels apart from just looking tough, are designed to absorb the hardest bumps and bruises. And that's good because this bike is made for them!
