Now it's more of a ripper than ever thanks to a new suspension design that delivers more traction, speed and virtually no pedal kickback. Our best model gives you a top-of-the-line fork, shock and brakes, too.- new suspension layout with a high pivot and idler pulley increases traction, carries more speed and reduces pedal kickback for more stability- virtually zero pedal kickback means that youâll stay confidently planted and in control during descents â especially when landing jumps or drops- the high pivot design delivers a more efficient rearward axle path so youâll carry more speed and your wheel wonât get hung up on obstacles- adjust your suspension progression by flipping the lower shock mount chip â 20% for plush park rides, 25% for racing efficiency- our new dh sizing system is based on reach, not rider height, which is the most important factor in a great downhill bike fitall speed, no hang-upssessionâs high-pivot design results in a rearward axle path that lets the back wheel move with the rearward force from bumps, not against it. On the trail, it feels like smoother suspension that maintains more forward momentum and provides more grip.Rock the mulletsession comes stocked for speed with 29er wheels, but party-in-the-back riders can run a mixed setup with a 27.5ë rear wheel, or even 27.5" front and rear for more agility.Tune for your trailwith mino link adjustments on both geometry and suspension, you can easily tune your session to a progressive feel for racing days or dial it back for park days.Reach-based sizingwhen it comes to dh bikes, your reach affects your fit and ride quality far more than seat tube length. Weâve based sessionâs sizing on reach to ensure you can find the setup thatâs right for you.Active braking pivotactive braking pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.
Size-specific chainstay lengththe chainstay length, or rear centre, grows as the frame reach grows so you get balanced weight distribution no matter your frameâs size. High-speed control and big mountain fun for everyone
