SLACKR Titanium Mountain Bike
Design Parameters: Build the most capable trail hardtail that is playful, grin-inducing and built to pedal long trail days.
Introducing the SLACKR, our new 150mm/140mm travel shreddy Ti hardtail that is designed for all-day trail riding. SLACKR will come in 6 sizes, and fit a 36T chainring and a 29x2.6" tire. Fabricated in-house using Titanium 3/2.5 Aerospace grade domestic tubing, our custom 3D Additive "Space Yoke", and PMW Sliding dropouts.
The SLACKR rounds out our MTB lineup with a slacker ;) option for riders looking for a playful trail bike.

Chumba Custom Tubing: Built of the best certified domestic 3/2.5 Titanium tubing available.
The SLACKR stands out from other bikes in the long travel hardtail category with it's short adjustable chainstays and pedal forward seat tube angle.
This isn't another long travel park bike disguised as a trail hardtail. Our take on trail geometry positions the rider to be in a powerful all day pedaling position. This is accomplished through careful planning of reach and seat tube angles.
Designed to inspire confident play on the trail while the lightweight frame encourages you to ride longer.
Strong 6/4 Titanium PMW adjustable sliding dropouts and a 428mm - 448mm chainstay length offers 20mm of wheelbase adjustment fine tuning the bikes feel.
The reach is optimized for precise steering with stem lengths between 35mm and 70mm.
A balanced bottom bracket drop, positioned to bring out the rest of the geometry, gives clearance to pedal through technical rock gardens while also hooking up in cornering.

Standover/Effective Seat Tube Angle
Standover is measured 90mm forward of the bottom bracket, using a 29x2.4 tire for reference.
Effective seat tube angle is calculated from average saddle heights and placements per size.
The range is roughly 1º in either direction of the effective angle based on your chosen saddle placement
