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 Fox Shox's «32 Talas RLC»-fork and the swingarm for long ascents. On the mountain top, you can set the suspension back to its full travel quickly to tacle the following downhill. In order to make sure you'll enjoy your ride for quite a while Wheeler's product managers have decided to put Shimano's complete «XT»-group on the «Hornet 10» - 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 Crank Brother's neat «SPD»-pedals, Selle Italia's «NT1 Gel» saddle, Continental's generously studded and yet lightweight «Mountain King» tires and a choice of fine FSA parts, e.g. a beautyful carbon seatpost.
EFFICIENT FOR THE CLIMB OR SENSITIVE FOR ADDED COMFORT? A TWIST ON THIS LEVER IS ALL THAT’S NEEDED TO CHANGE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF FOX SHOX’S «FLOAT RP23» DAMPER.
SHIMANO’S NEW «XT SHADOW» REAR DERAILLEUR SHIFTS EVEN MORE PRECISELY – AND THANKS TO ITS NARROWER CONSTRUCTION YOU ARE LESS LIKELY TO SLAM IT INTO OBSTACLES ON ROUGH TRAILS.
