With its high-class specification, the top model of Wheeler’s «Hornet»-line will please even demanding bikers: Demanding to themselves, their equipment and the trails they ride. Thanks to its variable travel, the «Hornet 10» shines on steep climbs as well as on tricky descents. Shorten the bike’s travel on the «All Mountain»-fork and the swingarm for long ascents. On the mountain top, you can set the suspension back to its full travel quickly. Wheeler’s product managers have speced the «Hornet 10» with a lot of precious componentry in order to make sure you’ll enjoy your ride for quite a while: SRAM’s X.9-drivetrain offers lightning- fast shifting at a low weight. Similarily, Magura’s new «Louise»-discbrake offers plenty of stopping power without a weight penalty – a 180mm-rotor on the front delivers an extra portion of braking for long downhills. On top of all that, you’ll get a pair of Crankbrother’s neat «Acid»-pedals to make sure you keep connected to your «Hornet 10».
