3/2.5 SEAMLESS TITANIUM TUBESET
Custom specd, triple-butted tubing. Appropriate stiffness and compliance for a fantastic ride quality. Light weight with superior fatigue life
TIMBERJACK GEOMETRY
Timberjack uses longer toptubes and shorter stems that put the rider in a confidence-inspiring position off-road. Using the same stem length, offsets, and angles on each frame size, we provide riders across our size range with the same consistent front-end experience. This formula on the business side, with "party-in-the-back" chainstays that can be as short as 420mm, means youve got an agile missile ready to ruckus on any trail
VERSATILE BUILD OPTIONS
Timberjack offers a variety of canvases for the off-road artist. Build it with 27.5+ or 29er wheels and tires, a 130mm travel suspension fork or our rigid Firestarter fork, or geared or singlespeed with the Alternator dropouts that can change chainstay lengths from 420 to 437mm. With multiple dropout plate options, rear spacing of the frame can be 135mm QR, 142mm thru-axle, or BOOST-148. Timberjack can easily adapt to whatever flavor of undertaking youre up for
