All the same key design features as the Unisex version, with the added benefit of a partially dropped top tube. This increases standover height, while still keeping enough room inside the frame to comfortably fit a water bottle. Another benefit of the partially dropped tube is the maintained stiffness of the frame (fully dropped top tube frames are flexi & offer less steering control). Full Shimano 9 speed Deore with Octalink BB interface for MTB durability. The ride-feel of these bikes is second to none, with a fantastic quality lightweight frame including our unique rear seat stays which really improve the comfort & performance, whatever the terrain.
