GT Ricochet Comp 29" Mountain Bike Bikes & Frames Hardtail

GT Ricochet Comp 29 Mountain Bike. The GT Ricochet Comp 29 mountain bike is the perfect platform for the value conscious rider who isn't willing to skimp on performance when venturing off road. The Ricochet Comp's foundation is a hydroformed 6061 T6 aluminum hardtail frame which translates to a nimble, maneuverable machine out on the trail. You'll revel in the comfort and precision steering supplied by the SR Suntour XCM HLO suspension fork featuring a plush 100mm of travel to smooth out rough terrain. The fork also sports a hydraulic lockout feature that enables you to maximize power transfer in situations where suspension isn't necessary, such as climbing or rolling along on asphalt or other smooth, hard pack surfaces. A 3x9 speed drivetrain with a mix of Shimano and SR Suntour components means 27 smooth and responsive shifting options for steep climbs, quick accelerations, or prolonged efforts. And rest assured you can stop quickly and safely with a set of Promax Decipher hydraulic disc brakes delivering plenty of power and control in any conditions. The 29er's large diameter wheels are ideal for rolling smooth and fast over rough terrain and the Ricochet Comp provides a wheelset that's the epitome of reliability and strength. The aluminum doublewall rims, 32 hole All Terra aluminum hubs, plus tried and true 14g spokes laced in a 3x pattern equates to a rugged set up that's built to tame any terrain.
