Description
The Procaliber 9.7 is a cross country hardtail designed for breathtaking speed in any XC race. The IsoSpeed decoupler on the carbon frame mitigates tiring bumps and lets you pedal more powerfully for longer, while the lighter components allow you to fly up the mountains and blast at flat speeds.
It's the right bike for you if...
... you are a trail veteran and already part of the inventory at local XC races. You want parts upgrades that make you faster - like lighter carbon wheels and a wider gear range drivetrain that saves you vital energy on the steepest climbs.
You get this equipment
A light and stiff carbon frame with trail-smoothing IsoSpeed, a lightweight RockShox Reba RL suspension fork with Solo Air spring, Motion Control damping and remote lockout. There's also a SRAM GX Eagle drive with an extra-wide gear range, fast-rolling 29-inch Bontrager Kovee Elite 23 carbon wheels and a carbon seat post.
Our final word
An ingenious bike for ambitious racers. The higher quality suspension fork and carbon wheels bring enormous weight savings and more speed.
