The third-generation Switchblade is a do-it-all mountain bike that shines in the bike park and on singletrack. This bike is built to handle all the mountains, all the time. Now with a slacker head angle, steeper seat angle, increased reach, and a longer wheelbase than its predecessor. Size-specific chainstays are tucked in and responsive but grow incrementally longer on larger frames. This translates to added stability at warp speeds while maintaining the snap and pop ingrained in the Switchblade’s DNA. The new Switchblade is light enough to pedal all day, but stout enough to run a Fox 38 without any worries. You can spin this rig up into the jagged high places, and it is burly enough, composed enough, planted enough, and smooth enough to smash every line back down, laughing the whole way.
This is the Gen 3 Switchblade, but you may see it referred to online as V3 or even V6 due to small changes made within previous generation models.
