Combining cutting-edge carbon fiber technology with big hoops makes for an amazingly fast ride, and it’s the reason the Dakota D29 series is the new hardtail standard for high-speed racing or long, epic days on the trail.
The Team and Pro feature full carbon framesets – high modulus Dyad Supreme on the Team for light weight and optimal frame stiffness; Dyad Elite on the Pro for a bit more trail damping capability, sure to be appreciated late in the ride. Both offer tapered head tubes and 15mm thru-axle forks for more precise handling and control, and PF30 BB systems that yield a stiffer pedaling platform for more immediate power transfer.
The Race and new Comp feature featherweight, triple-butted aluminum frames with carbon fiber monostays that further reduce weight while adding some vibration damping. The Race offers a lightweight XC 2x10 drivetrain, the Comp a more versatile 3 x10, with both offering oversized 180mm front brake rotors and tapered head tubes for big-fisted stopping power and steering control that’s a perfect match for big 29” treads.
