A stack of new tooling has been developed the bring this new hardtail to fruition and it's got all the features that you would expect on a modern hardtail. The frame, built at our Halifax factory, has been painstakingly detailed using the now familiar frame fabrication techniques we are renowned for - resulting in a light, responsive, rugged hardtail frame that's ready for anything.

There are plenty of mounting options on the frame so you can add our Strange carry-on accessory mount or bottles where you want them.
