If you’re going to build the best all-mountain bike, frame choice is critical. Our Blackthorn 145 frameset starts you off right, with a Fox Float X2 Performance Elite shock, chain guide, and headset included. The durable aluminum frame features geometry balanced for all the climbing and descending that comes with big days on the mountain. The Split Pivot suspension allows us to optimize pedaling and braking performance for predictable traction whether pedaling through tech or braking on rocky, rooty descents. Our Split Pivot + design philosophy means you can swap travel class to 125mm rear/140mm front for bikepacking missions or changing up the ride ƒor new terrain. Blackthorn’s cargo mounts give you freedom to wander, with space for two bottles, a repair kit, snacks, and everything else you’d want for a big day out.
