The Heyday! Advent is a machine made with adventure in mind. 26 x 4.6" tires have no trouble rolling over loose terrain or tracking through overgrown paths. The aluminum frame blends durability and weight savings with stable geometry for roaming far and wide. And Heyday!'s versatility is unmatched: Alternator 2.0 dropouts allow for multiple drivetrain setups; cargo mounts let you load up for a day or a week; your wheel and tire options also include 27.5 fat and 29+. All this, paired with microSHIFT's trusty Advent wide-range 9-speed drivetrain, will remove "unrideable" from your vocabulary.

On-Bike Storage

Carry more on your bike and less on your body. Our frames and forks feature mounts for extra bottles, camping gear, and ride accessories.

Alternator Dropouts

Tune your ride characteristics and switch to single speed with ease. Our swappable dropout plates allow for multiple drivetrain options.

6066-T6 ALUMINUM FRAME

Top-shelf, double and triple-butted, heat-treated 6066-T6 aluminum tubing is used throughout the frame. This 6000-series aluminum has better strength and fatigue characteristics than 6061 and 7000-series aluminums, allowing for a stronger and lighter overall frame. Additionally, the tubing is strategically shaped and formed for additional stiffness and strength optimization in key stress areas

HEYDAY! GEOMETRY

Heyday! geometry works extremely well in all conditions and use cases, whether it's riding groomed singletrack at your local trail, exploring a coastline, or embarking across the wild frozen expanses of Alaska. We use the shortest chainstays possible with a headtube angle and fork offset that place the riders center of gravity farther back. This combination of front and rear center is key to getting a fat bike that is stable, steers well in loose conditions, and still feels nimble despite the massive wheels and tires. A low bottom bracket also keeps the riders center of gravity low and makes dabbing, dismounting, and remounting easier

26 X 4.6" WHEEL & TIRE SIZE

Heyday! rolls on 26 x 4.6" tires on 80 mm rims. This huge tire delivers massive traction, stability, and optimum floatation on soft surfaces such as ungroomed snow or loose sand

BEARPAW FORK

This aluminum fork features a 150 x 15 mm thru-axle that boosts stiffness and improves steering precision. The fork also features our Three-Pack mounts for accessorizing with Anything Cages or water bottle cages

ALTERNATOR DROPOUTS V1.0

The Alternator dropout delivers incredible drivetrain versatility. Run singlespeed or geared, QR or thru-axle, freehub or Rohloff. Set the Alternator dropouts all the way forward for a shorter wheelbase that results in quick and nimble handling, or set back for more stability-the power is yours. See our Alternator page for more info
