About this bike:
The Juice is our trail/XC hardtail frame for 29" wheels. This updated version features tough Broski Sliding Dropouts that allow you to go single-speed or geared or even run hub gears and slightly more modern geometry. Also new is internal seat tube dropper post routing. A modified chainstay allows fitting even some double cranks with “plus size” 2.8" wide tires without needing to invest in Boost 148 parts. We even offer a belt-drive ready version if you want to run a Gates Carbon Drive. (*Belt-drive version works with regular chains as well)
