Yeti SB5.5 Eagle Carbon (2017)

Yeti’s SB5.5 is where the trail, all-mountain and gravity bike intersect. Forget any preconceived notions about 29ers, thanks to an impeccable frame design, shortened chain stays and aggressive suspension spec, the SB5.5 is easy to maneuver and feels lively and quick. The SB5.5 Carbon series frame is 6.21 lbs and preserves Yeti-performance at a more aggressive price point by using a slightly modified carbon material and different layup. Yeti’s Switch Infinity suspension platform grants you the trail-ruling trinity of deep travel support, small bump sensitivity, and solid climbing. To keep the bike balanced, Yeti used a 160mm-travel fork with 51mm offset combined with a 66.5-degree head angle. Outfitted with the most sought-after drivetrain in the industry, the SB5.5 Carbon Eagle is ready to take flight on your local trails and bike parks. Yeti rounded out the bike with Fox Performance suspension, the aggressive Maxxis Minion DHF and Aggressor tires, and SRAM Guide R brakes with monster 180mm rotors. The final touch is a burly Race Face stem and Turbine seatpost dropper.
