Diamondback Sync'r Carbon
Details
Mountain bikes are meant to be shredded, and the Sync'r Carbon is game for that. It's the most bomber yet of our progressive hardtail mountain bikes. An all-new monocoque carbon frame design features a tapered headtube and Boost rear spacing for increased stiffness. Burly 27.5x2.8-inch tires roll on tubeless-compatible Blanchard wheels, providing a cush feel while smashing down chundery trails. You also have the option to run 29-inch wheels.
A 140mm travel Fox 34 Float Performance fork can handle aggressive riding and big moves, while Shimano hydraulic disc brakes keep you on your line. Thanks to the SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain, your legs will stay fresh on the climbs so you can shred as hard as you want all the way down.
- Monocoque carbon frame features internal cable routing for a clean look and Boost spacing for added stiffness
- 140mm travel Fox 34 Float Performance fork designed for aggressive trail riding
- SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain provides an ultra-wide gear range and the simplicity of a single chainring
- Shimano hydraulic disc brakes offer great stopping power
- Plus-size tires on tubeless-compatible DB Blanchard wheels for more traction and control
A dropper seatpost allows you to quickly lower and raise your seat to give you an ideal riding position. Dropping your seat creates a lower center of gravity for better control and maneuverability on steep descents, while raising it puts you at normal riding height for efficient pedaling.
Construction can include either hydraulic- or cable-actuated systems and the post’s travel can either be infinitely adjustable or stopped at set intervals, depending on the model.
Dropper seatposts come in standard lengths and diameters and vary by the amount of travel.
Wider than standard yet narrower than fat, plus-size rims and tires hit the sweet spot in grip, stability, and speed, giving you more confidence on technical terrain. Compared to a standard tire you’ll feel grip in places you wouldn’t expect thanks to a bigger contact patch and greater rollover clearance. More air volume allows lower tire pressures which softens bumps and increases float on sand or snow. Whether you’re a novice or an expert, the benefits of plus-size tires and rims will amplify your mountain biking fun.
