Derailleur Hanger - Snabb - 2015-2020 - (With Bolt) #: SP-080 Price: $29.99 Stock: In stock | SP-080 | $29.99 | In stock |
The Snabb is the dream bike that we always wanted to have - a machine on which you can keep up with the guys on DH rigs in a bike park on one day, and do an epic ride with your mates on XC rigs on the next. Praised for performance and reliability, great geometry and fine handling, we treat the Snabb as mission accomplished. Wanna hear some tech talk...? Ok... there is a fair amount of anti-squat built into the horst-link design - this is especially important for use with 1X drivetrains. The 2017 Snabbs now feature one piece rocker arm keeps the already very rigid rear triangle even stiffer. It drives the new generation of shocks from Sram with a trunion mount - longer, bigger, better. The combination of the new shocks and rocker arms result in a more linear suspension curve and overall smoother functioning of the system. The geometry is modern, low, long and slack. We know that NS Bikes customers are usually tough, aggressive riders and expect our products to hold up to seasons of abuse. That is why the frames are built to DH racing standards in both alloy and carbon versions and run on high-end MAX bearings for prolonged periods of smooth, service free use. #snabbmeansfast
The ultimate mountain bike. Although these frames are built according to DH fatigue and impact standards, the use of the highest grades of carbon fibre results in over 600g weigh savings over the alloy versions. The main purpose of the bike is to excel at Enduro races, but even if you don't race, this is probably the most versatile mountain bike of them all.
MAIN CHANGES COMPARING SNABB C 2016:
- Suspension redesigned for better performance
- new model of Rock Shox Metric Deluxe Debonair RT3 w/ lockout
- 1x11 speed SRAM drivetrain with GX type 2.1 derailleur and Truvativ Descendant crankset
- new wide, tubeless ready rims (PLUS compatible)
- Schwalbe Magic Mary front & Hans Dampf rear tires
- 200mm front rotor
the frames have a good amount of anti-squat into the horst-link design, perfect for 1X drivetrains which tend to produce more squatting than traditional 2X setups. After many prototypes we achieved our desired suspension curves which make for a fantastic ride that gives a feeling of support but at the same time allows full range of travel to be used. The 4-bar Horst link suspension has a significant amount of rearward axle movement which helps to absorb square faced bumps. The system, unlike most other designs on the market (including virtual pivot designs) it is immune to brake jack (i.e. the torque generated by the brakes will not cause the suspension to stiffen).
