Spectral 27.5 AL 5

Optimised aluminium design

The Spectral AL’s alloy frame is no mere copy of its carbon counterpart – we developed it independently from the ground up. To get the most from aluminium, we treated the design and manufacturing process very differently. And the results are clear to see – optimised, straighter tube sections create outstanding stiffness and strength, without the need for thicker walls. Plus a range of clever design features increase the frame’s lifespan and make wrenching more rider-friendly than ever.

Fun-first geometry

For a maximum fun factor on any trail, the Spectral is built around a progressive geometry. The slack head tube angle, extended reach, and reduced-offset forks all unite to offer riders a blend of excellent high-speed stability and low-speed handling and agility. Plus, a steep seat tube angle shifts your centre of mass forward for more efficient climbing performance.

Internal cable routing

For clean aesthetics, we route cables and lines internally through the frame. Foam lining in the front triangle keeps things super-quiet by reducing rattling.

Bike classification

This category also covers the requirements of categories 1-3. In addition it includes use on very harsh, obstacle-scattered terrain with steep gradients and consequently higher speeds. Regular, moderate jumps pose no problem for experienced riders when using these bikes. Extended and regular use in bike parks and tackling “North Shore” sections should be avoided. Due to increased stresses, these bikes should be checked for damage after every ride. Full suspension bikes with mid-level travel are typical in this category.
