When you can only have one bike, and your mission is to ride that bike into oblivion, then this is the one. From manicured bike parks to blown out loamy berms, alpine lines to backyard trails, the Bronson is as at home in the air as it is in the dirt. For the rider with a Peter Pan disposition or who wants to get into a pan flat tabletop position, the Bronson encourages bad behavior.
FEATURES
SPECS
FEATURES:
- Minimal kickback on square-edge hits
- Remains active while pedaling up and across rough, technical terrain
- More sensitivity. The suspension is quite plush off the top, with fluttery small bump performance
- Leverage rate provides predictable, consistent, progressive support
- The 150mm-travel bike has enough travel to go deep on any landing and the VPP™ suspension design makes sure that there’s no wasted energy when heading back up for another go.
- The mixed wheel configuration of a 29-inch wheel up front provides traction and stability, while the 27.5″ rear wheel allows for quick back wheel steering and lifting.
- The Bronson’s chainstay length is matched to frame size so every rider, no matter their height, gets the same balanced geometry and bike fit.
- The Bronson’s looks have changed radically. It wasn’t to satisfy the ego of a designer or stand out, but rather moving the location of the lower link and the shock down low and forward was paramount in lowering the anti-squat for a wild bike like the Bronson.
- Anti-squat refers to how much your pedaling inputs stiffen the suspension. Think of it as yanking your chain, and therefore your pedals, backwards every time you hit a bump. Not enough anti-squat and you have a bike that bobs under power. Too much and the bike will be harsh and not as able to absorb bumps while under power. We’ve worked hard to improve (reduce) anti-squat on our bikes and the result is more traction and more freedom.
