The Ultimate Trail Animal
Riding like the mountain bike love child of a monster truck and an F1 car, our top-of-the range, carbon fibre-framed T-140C RSX, is the ultimate down-country/mid-travel trail full suspension bike for riding far and having maximum fun on.
Lightweight and capable, it’s dressed with a premium ‘fun and fast’ parts selection, including wireless electronic gearing and RockShox Pike Ultimate suspension fork, so you can take the party to any trail.
Highlights
Why T-140C RSX?
From fast and fun down-country-style rides, trail centre looping, long rides across the hills, or having fun on your favourite techy singletrack, our premium carbon-framed mid travel trail bike, the T-140C RSX, is as playful to ride as it is performance-focused so you can ride far and have fun wherever the trail leads.
Our switchable Shape.It link also means you can adjust the geometry from its stock high setting to low to slacken the head angle out by 0.6º and reduce the bottom bracket height by 8mm for a more aggressive, gravity-focused ride character.
We’ve also tuned the T-140C R’s wide rim and tyre combination to engineer a ride that gives you greater grip, compliance and control when riding rough or technical terrain: 27.5in x 2.6in tyres have a rolling diameter like some smaller 29in tyres but, due to the wider and larger diameter of them, when paired with a wide rim (35mm internal width) the large air volume lets you run lower tyre pressures and significantly increase the compliance of your ride – perfect for keeping things cool, calm and collected on square-edged hits, as well as on traction-lite and off-camber sections for confident control and fun on every ride.
Features & Equipment
We’ve equipped the T-140C RSX with a carefully curated suite of premium components to deliver you the very best performance when riding fast, far and hard on the most testing trails.
Upgraded RockShox Pike Ultimate fork and Deluxe Ultimate shock nail the sketchiest situations while keeping weight low and 27.5 x 2.6in Maxxis tyres, with a reinforced rear tyre for added impact insurance, inject outstanding float and flow to an already ultra-agile joy machine.
SRAM’s GX AXS Eagle 1x12 wireless electronic shifting gives you the sharpest, most reliable shifting through every condition, while SRAM’s feedback-rich and reliably powerful Guide G2 RS four-piston hydraulic disc brakes (with 180mm rotors front and rear) maximise braking control.
Our wide Whyte riser bar and short 35mm Gravity stem deliver smoothly precise and confident control, and a Bike Yoke Revive dropper post with frame size-specific drop (S size frame = 125mm; M/L/XL size frame = 160mm) gives you room to manoeuvere when things get rowdy.
Unique, fully sealed BBX63 internal cable and hose routing and seat post collar keeps controls silent, free of dirt and secure but easy to service – even through the worst conditions. Our 1X-specific SCR (Single Chain Ring) frame design also gives masses of mud room while keeping handling tight and responsive, while double-sealed hubs and DT Swiss spokes help minimise maintenance.
Add our lifetime warrantied bearings and weather-sealed features and you’ve got every trail excellence, every day.
