WHY IT'S GREAT
WOMEN’S M5 ALLOY FRAME
WHAT: Women's M5 alloy frame
featuring Women's XC Trail 29er
Geometry and tubesets, 110mm travel,
tapered headtube, ultra-low standover
height, and full water bottle clearance on
all sizes. Rumor EVO features 120mm of
front and rear travel.
WHY: To provide the most capable, best
fitting women’s full-suspension 29er trail
bike.
HOW: Designing the bike from the ground
up with a two-piece toptube and shock
carriage enables us to create in-line
suspension and reach our lofty 29er
design targets in terms of standover,
kinematics, and bottle clearance.
CUSTOM SUSPENSION TUNE
WHAT: Bike and suspension designed
together from the ground up, featuring
our custom-tuned spring rates for lighter
weight riders.
WHY: Delivers a more capable and
confidence inspiring bike by keeping the
ride quality smooth and tuning spring
curves so women can utilize all of their
suspension travel.
HOW: By designing the bike and
suspension in tandem, we can achieve
completely balanced performance that’s
appropriate to the bike and rider.
Extensive field testing and research on
women’s center of gravity and weight
distribution helps us determine the
optimal spring rates for female riders.
WOMEN’S COMPONENTS
WHAT: All-new Women’s Body Geometry
Myth saddle, Women’s Enduro grips and
size-specific components.
WHY: To ensure that female riders get the
best fit at every contact point.
HOW: We take a systems approach to
design by spec’ing each bike individually
based on frame size and geometry.
Everything from small diameter grips to
size-specific crank lengths is optimized
for females.
AUTOSAG SUSPENSION TUNING
WHAT: Revolutionary SBC technology,
manufactured by FOX, automatically
sets the proper sag and air pressure in
the shock.
WHY: Quick and simple adjustment that
guarantees the perfect setting for
optimal suspension performance.
HOW: In the saddle, the rider pushes a
specially designed transfer port on the
shock to release air pressure until a set
level, based on the rider’s weight. This
equalizes the positive and negative
chambers and achieves perfect sag.
