Change gear with one shifter

A 32T chainring and an 11–51T twelve-speed cassette give you a choice of ratios for climbs and the links between descents, without a front derailleur to operate. The Kind Shock dropper lets you lower the saddle for more room to move, then raise it for pedalling.

Its appearance or construction may differ, while its functional specification remains suitable for the original intended use. This does not affect your statutory consumer rights.

Safety while riding

Riding, falls and impacts put loads through the bike and can damage components. No bike is indestructible: parts can wear out or become damaged. Check the frame, fork, bars, wheels, axles, cranks, pedals, brakes and bolted connections before every ride. Inspect the bike after a hard impact and stop riding if you find looseness, cracks or damage. Have any problem checked and repaired before riding again.

Wear a properly fitted helmet and suitable protective pads. Read our important information before buying and using a bike for assembly, servicing and riding checks.

• Before the first ride, fit the pedals, saddle and handlebars, and the front wheel where required. Follow the assembly instructions and check all components.
