    • SE:SERIES 8 AIR - DAILY COMMUTER MEETS OFFROAD GETAWAY

      Hardtail sport riding commuters and offroad getaways. Featuring a 8-Speed Shimano ESSA drivetrain, 100mm Air suspension fork, and hydraulic disc brakes, make the SE:Series 8 an off-road Sport-XC bike, ideal for weekend adventures.

      SPORT OPTIMISED POP GEOMETRY

      POP geometry engages bigger leg muscle groups for more effective climbing. The rider position on the SE:Series 8 improves traction, front wheel grip and bike control. This means that it also feels more natural, boosting confidence and skill development.

      Air Suspension Fork

      The SE:Series 8 Air comes equipped with a lighter weight Air-sprung 100mm suspension fork - Suntour XCR Air fork with Tapered Steerer. A suspension fork improves comfort and traction on a hardtail mountain bike.
