With the Pike SELECT you benefit from the technologies of the range-topping RockShox models, without having to deal with too many complicated settings. Thanks to the improved, next generation DebonAir+ spring, the Pike provides you with the right support in any situation – throughout the entire travel. What’s more, the CHARGER RC damping reduces friction for less arm pump and even more riding fun.
Full control at the rear wheel
The Rock Shox Deluxe Select+ RT rear shock with its individually adjustable DebonAir spring gives you excellent feel and control over the rear wheel. Thanks to an easy-to-reach lever, you’ll have an easy time adjusting the platform while riding. Overall, the Deluxe offers you a balance of downhill qualities and climbing skills.
High-end, off-road performance
Even under heavy load, the SHIMANO XT 8100 12-speed high-end groupset offers above-average performance and is also particularly lightweight with two aluminium sprockets. With its wide range of 510%, you'll easily climb any mountain and shift smoothly without pedalling interruption thanks to the HYPERGLIDE+ technology. A new bump stopper on the rear derailleur and the robust construction ensure long-lasting riding pleasure.
Formula braking power
The extremely powerful and track-proven CURA 2 is Formula's first mineral oil-based hydraulic disc brake. It offers outstanding braking power with excellent modulation and gives you the safety you need on the trail.
With its 120 mm travel and a balanced trail geometry, the Ground Control 3 becomes your new playful partner for exciting MTB adventures. The combination of the high-quality DT Swiss XM 1700 Spline wheelset and the Schwalbe Nobby Nic tyres impresses on even the most demanding trails with the right balance between traction and rolling resistance, so that you will always have a sure-footed feel. The travel of the e*thirteen Vario Infinite Vario seat post can be shortened by 30 mm in just a few steps and can thus be optimally adjusted to your needs.
