2019 Timberjack NX Eagle 29
2019 Timberjack NX Eagle 29
Timberjack NX Eagle 29 makes hard trails a heck of a lot easier with its modern trail bike geometry and short chainstays for nimble scrambling. The SRAM NX Eagle groupset provides light, intuitive 1x12 gearing, while the RockShox Sektor RL fork works with the 29 x 2.6” rubber to smooth the bumps and provide traction. The Timberjack is equally at home pushing the limits on singletrack or bikepacking to places you’ve yet to discover.

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
29 x 2.6” Wheel/Tire Spec
29 x 2.6” tires provide excellent speed and incredible rollover
