El Mariachi
This specific model has been archived. It is no longer being produced or has changed in appearance but is listed here for historical/research purposes.
El Mariachi is our ‘two bikes for the price of one’ steel hardtail.
Crafted from True Temper OX Platinum tubing, the El Mariachi brings the great feel of steel to the 29’er platform. Its Bushnell eccentric bottom bracket and vertical dropouts add versatility. Run gears or run it single…that choice is yours.
Disc brake only, El Mariachi presents a clean, uncomplicated profile, while the sloping toptube provides generous standover clearance. The True Temper OX Platinum CroMoto Grande fork keeps the front end light, while providing sure tracking and reducing a surprising amount of trail chatter.
Most importantly, El Mariachi rides right. It feels nimble, carving tight turns while delivering tons of traction. Soak in the pleasure of a supreme singletrack run. Lean the bike over and feel your tires bite. Roll over the roots and rocks while you look ahead to the next corner.
Whether you’re one of the 29’er-committed crowd or just someone who believes a big-wheeled bike is ideal for some of the trails you ride, El Mariachi offers you one sweet ride.
El Mariachi. Large and in charge.
