Additional Features

6066-T6 & 6061 Aluminum Tubeset

A blend of our proprietary, top shelf 6066-T6 double and triple-butted tubing to the main triangle with 6061-T6 chain and seatstays creates a light, responsive, and durable frame that provides great trail feel

Timberjack Geometry

Timberjack uses a longer toptube and shorter stem to put the rider ina confidence inspiring position for off-road riding. Using the same stem length, offsets, and angles on each frame size, we provide riders across our size range with the same consistent front-end experience. Combining this front end with super-short chainstays, as short as 420mm, makes Timberjack an extremely agile trail bike

27.5 x 2.8” Wheel/Tire Spec

Large volume 27.5 x 2.8” tires provide confidence inspiring traction while also helping smooth the trail

130mm Travel Front Suspensio

Gobble up the bumps with a SR Suntour XCR 34 Air suspension fork

Dropper Seatpost Included

Drop your saddle for steep descents and technical terrain with the included Trans-X dropper seatpost. The frame also provides stealth cable routing

Alternator Dropout Versatility

The Alternator Dropout delivers incredible drivetrain versatility. Run singlespeed or geared, QR or thru-axle, freehub or Rohloff. Set the Alternator Dropouts all the way forward for a shorter wheelbase and quick, nimble handling, or set back for more stability. See our Alternator page
