Some say the SB140 never met a dirt it didn't like. We agree in spades. What's your pleasure? Drag a bar. Make an edit. Stay out after dark. Dust off the blueprints for the loop-de-loop. Try it. Land it. Or just stay at it. The undisputed champion of up to no good. Toboggan run, anyone? Happy to pedal. Greedy for more. Boost confidence as you boost everything. The mayor of Jibtown, proudly wearing the RIP crown. The SB140. Down for fun.DOWN TO FUN.Technology is only valuable when how it works is invisible to the rider. But its benefits are felt loud and clear every time they ride. The SB140 is the world's finest rip bike. We'll let the pictures do the talking. LEVERAGE RATEA straighter, more linear progression curve means it's easier to tune shocks to pair with suspension kinematics. We aim to design a leverage rate with linear progression. A straighter, more linear progression curve means it's easier to tune shocks to pair with suspension kinematics, and we don't have to to rely on damping circuits to compensate. We can choose a leverage ratio that provides small bump sensitivity and enough progression to maintain mid-stroke support and bottom out control. Being able to manipulate the leverage ratio without affecting the anti-squat characteristics is unique to our patented Switch Infinity suspension.ANTI-SQUATAcross our line, we have chosen a relatively flat and high anti-squat curve in beginning and mid-section of travel where pedaling commonly occurs a.k.a the pedaling zone. This creates an efficient pedaling platform through your entire pedaling zone, there is an inflection point where the Switch Infinity link moves down, dropping the anti-squat drasticlly. Riders are typically not pedaling in this zone, so chain forces have less of an effect on the suspension performance. Decoupling of the chain forces allows the suspension to work more efficiently to absorb impacts making the feel of a Yeti distinct.Features:65.4-degree head angle with Inline Kit options.,77.6-degree seat tube angle with Inline Kit options.,Boost spacing.,Internal cable routing.,Integrated headset.,Short fork offset design.,In frame water bottle mount.,Tire clearance for 2.6",Offered in XS..
Why did it take us so long to make the 160E? Because we thought its only wise that we heed the laws of physics. So we took the time to explore and build the 160E on an all new suspension platform, we call Sixfinity™. Also allows us to address the added power, weight and unique demands of an E-bike. Sure it took us some time. From what we've learned along the way, it'll save even more. The first E-bike built for racing, the 160E breaks new drounds.FEATURES:Boost spacing and SRAM UDH hanger.,446mm chain stay.,Uninterrupted 31.6 seat tube offers great dropper post compatibility.,Rated to Yeti DH standards.,Floating collet axles and pinch bolts on the linkage extend bearing life and ensure optimal, consistent alignment.,Custom OneUp chain guide mount.,MD thru XL Mainframes accommodate a standard water bottle while our "hot lap" bottle will fit in a SM frame.,Custom cable ports, captured hoses and housing and ribbed chainstay guards provide a silent ride.,The frame ports are also configurable for clean setup whether you run cabled, wireless or a combination for your dropper and derailleur.,"Moto" brake compatible routing (Left Rear Brake/Right Front Brake).,Tube in tube routing in swingarm for rear brake, speed sensor and derailleur.,Rear mud fender protects motor and linkage.,Shock drain hole to keep water and mud out..SIXFINITY™New E exclusive Sixfinity™ suspension platform, Patent pending,6-Bar linkage,Lower link switches direction similar to Switch Infinity,We're able to tune Sixfinity™ to have our desired ride characteristics while accommodating the weight and speed that comes with a motor and battery,First Sixfinity™ platform prototype developed in 2016.SIXFINITY™ in MotionAs the suspension progresses through its travel, the Switch link initially rotates up until it reaches the inflection point. It then "switches" directions and continues to rotate down.
