2020 Pitch Comp 2X Gloss UV Lilac/Satin Black

THE SWEET SPOT

What to pick, the nimble 26-inch wheel size or the fast-rolling 29er? Neither, we said. The the sweet spot for many riders, and trails, is right in between, so the Pitch rolls on 27.5-inch wheels that offer a 29er’s confident handling in a tighter, lighter package.

STRENGTH AND GRACE

The A1 Premium Aluminum frame is pretty much the definition of strong. But that doesn’t mean it rides like a brute. Our engineers carefully optimized the shape of every tube to ensure it offers a smooth, comfortable, confident ride even on the bumpiest trails.

TOP-CLASS PARTS

Double-chainring Shimano drivetrain handles steep climbs with ease.

SR Suntour XCM suspension fork with Multi-Circuit custom damping.

Sure-gripping Ground Control Sport tyres for reliable traction.

• Hardtails might be the oldest mountain bike design but they continue to evolve. Our modern geometry prizes a roomy reach and short stem to keep you balanced over the wheels, while 94mm of trail—almost identical to our rowdy Fuse line—provides precise steering at any speed.
• You know that feeling when you go into a corner a little too fast and can’t slow down? Yeah, us neither, at least not with these powerful Shimano MT-200 hydraulic disc brakes.
• Dual-chainring drivetrains still have their place. Long climbs, for example, where the 18-speed Shimano Altus drivetrain on the Pitch Comp 2X provides the perfect gear for any grade, and closer gear-to-gear jumps than a 1X system so you can spin comfortably no matter the terrain.
