A Mountain Bike For Mountain Biking
* Here's that tech we were talking about
Proportional Response
The Habit's all-new suspension design philosophy delivers a bike engineered for every size rider, meaning optimized kinematics for all. Utilizing size-specific Center-of-Gravity (COG) data, the suspension linkage arrangement for every size of bike was tailored so that each rider experiences optimized suspension performance while braking and improved overall pedaling efficiency. Proportional Response optimizes Habit's ride for more control, more efficiency and flat out more fun.

Ai
For those keeping score, Ai is like Boost but way better. Ai paved the way for the Habit to have 435mm chainstays that are more nimble and capable in corners while still having loads of tire clearance and stiffness
Modern Trail Geometry
With a 66 degree headtube angle and a steep seattube angle the Habit puts the rider in the right position for when the trails head up, and gets the saddle down low and out of the way when it's time to get down

Ai
Ai delivers some of the shortest stays on the trail for climb-crushing traction and unreal agility, while preserving max tire clearance and frame stiffness.
Lockr
Our very own Lockr thru-axle pivot system creates a rock solid connection between both sides of the swing arm and the main frame for instantaneous response. No twist, no flex and no special tools required.
Flip Chip
The flip chip allows riders to have 27+ compatibility with the same frame
Linkage
Two piece alloy links keep the suspension moving smoothly
