orget the numbers. Mute the speculation. Let the other guys invent cute alternatives for “cross country.” steer clear of pigeonholes and limiting beliefs. Strap on your blinders and go get lost. Then decide what the sb120 means to you. And you alone.

TRAIL CHECK MATE.

Crushing souls on the descent is more than half the fun. And a hell of a lot more than half the point. The SB120 is wicked quick in your direction of choice.

SWITCH INFINITY. RECALCULATED.

Discover the new Switch Infinity: the next-gen of translating pivot suspension design. Setting new expectations for longevity, sensitivity and strength.

PIVOT TRANSLATION.

Switch Infinity utilizes a patented translating pivot that switches direction as the bike moves through its travel. This provides a tailored anti-squat curve while delivering a fine-tuned leverage ratio.

TUNABLE.

Switch Infinity is a versatile four-bar system that easily adapts to different travel platforms. The system can achieve a myriad of kinematics depending on the desired ride characteristics. The Switch Infinity system can control ride characteristics more precisely than other suspension designs because of the linear path of the main pivot.­­

ABSORBS BUMPS EFFECTIVELY.

Switch Infinity decouples chain forces from suspension forces incredibly effectively. In the beginning and mid-section of travel – when Switch Infinity moves up – a relatively flat and high anti-squat curve ­creates an efficient pedaling platform through the entire pedaling zone. As a result, suspension performs consistently and predictably. When Switch Infinity reverses direction, anti-squat drastically drops for freedom of suspension movement.

BOTTOMLESS. BY DESIGN.

Due to Switch Infinity’s unique characteristics, bottom out resistance increases in the last third of the stroke, delivering a feel that makes reaching full travel almost imperceptible to the rider. Rear shock damping is tuned to work in harmony with the engineered kinematics of each bike.

A BETTER BEARING APPROACH.

With a reengineered approach to the bearing interface, we’ve increased the sensitivity and extended bearing life. Main pivot bearing races are linked radially and axially. A Floating Collet Axle tightens directly against the Switch Infinity bearings eliminating the possibility for unwanted play, or misalignment. The result? Switch Infinity gives riders greater suspension sensitivity and a stiffer chassis with longer bearing life than ever before.

MORE DURABLE. BY DESIGN.

A newly refined, simple design built from proven suspension components enabled by FOX Factory. The new design utilizes more sophisticated bushings and hardware to shield from the elements.

DEFINITION READY.

Staring the cliché right in the face, the tuning of the SB120’s Switch Infinity really does a whole lot more, with far less than other suspension designs made for modern trail riding. Unbelievably capable of taking a hit and everything in between. Still pedals like a dream.

LOOKS THE PART. BECAUSE IT IS.

With a new-gen approach to our shortest travel bike, the SB120 now has a frame silhouette that’s inspired by its longer legged siblings. Torsional precision and impact clearance has increased, without transferring unwanted feedback to the rider. And the refined Switch Infinity makes this bike punch well above its weight.

UNPARALLELED FEEL.
FOR ALL RIDERS.

Every rider deserves a frame feel that’s tuned for them, regardless of frame size. Over the course of hundreds of virtual simulation comparisons and back-to-back carbon prototype testing, we’ve refined our carbon layups to deliver consistent torsional stiffness and flex profiles across all frame sizes. The feel is precise yet compliant while structurally balancing light weight and durability.

SPEED METAL.

Our new pivot designs use 100% standard sized cartridge bearings secured with precision — machined floating collet axles. All bearings are pressed into the linkage assembly vs the swingarm or front triangle.

LEVERAGE RATE.

A relatively linear progression curve gives riders usable, active travel at 30% sag – a far greater margin than other 120mm travel bikes. The SB120’s small bump compliance delivers incredible traction. Its supportive mid-stroke ensures riders don’t blow through travel when pushing against the suspension in turns or when getting the wheels off the ground. Oh shit moments are handled with ease – the curve has been tuned with increased bottom-out control.

CABLE MANAGEMENT.

Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points eliminate rattles and cable rub. Whether running a mechanical drivetrain and dropper or a wireless setup, cable management is intuitively easy and quiet.

THREADED BB.

Threaded aluminum bottom bracket shell with integrated ISCG-05 tabs. This critical drivetrain interface is now more durable, cleaner, and easier to service.

UNIVERSALLY READY.

If a hanger bending crash occurs, the new Yeti models use the Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH) interface — the industry standard mount for a rear derailleur. The UDH is available in nearly any bike shop, Yeti dealer or not.

FULL DROP.

As the capability of our bikes continues to increase, so does their ability to run modern day, full-stroke dropper posts. Our seat tube is shorter to allow for a longer dropper posts. Most riders will be able to use a 150mm dropper posts on Small frames*, 175mm on Medium frames*, and 200mm+ dropper posts on L-XXL frames*, respectively.

Dependent on actual seat height on specific bike size.

MIRCO WISHBONE.
MEET ULTRA COMPACT EXTENDER.

An all new ultra-compact, minimalist, 1-piece shock extender was designed specifically for the demands of the shorter travel SB120. It optimizes leverage rate while pushing the shock forward in the frame. This forward positioning allows for a large range of shock compatibility, decreases stand over height, reduces shock tab sizes, increases water bottle compatibility, and increases downtube clearance.
