Details
Designed to strike the perfect balance of lightweight cross-country efficiency and technical precision, the Element is the best of all worlds.
The lightest full-suspension carbon bike we've ever made
350g lighter than the previous generation, even more capable.
Not your average pivot design.
A new addition to the Element is the Smoothlink SL flex stay. By eliminating the traditional pivot, we’re not only able to shave weight but also increase stiffness in the rear triangle. Lighter and more refined, you can expect the same supreme ride quality of our traditional Smoothlink design that puts the Element ahead of its competitors.
Engineered for the Edge
Progressive geometry keeps you ahead of the pack with long, low, and slack angles that confidently tackle any surprises along the way.
Optimized for Power, Built to Thrill
We fine-tuned the frame design to save over 350g in weight, making the Element the lightest full-suspension bike we've ever produced. At the same time, we increased frame stiffness in key areas for a responsive, snappy, and quick-accelerating ride feel.
Adventure-Ready by Design
Customize what you carry with multiple frame mounts for bottles and accessories. Plus, upgraded dual-row, high-capacity bearings ensure reliability and longevity. From long-distance racing to deep backcountry missions, the Element has you covered.
