In cooperation with the Women´s Bike Camp and the Bold factory rider Sabrina Morell, the „Linkin Trail WBC Edition“ was developed and limited up to 30 bikes. When it comes to geometry and cinematics, the bike reverts to the award winning Linkin Trail specified for the female rider. Suspension wise the Rockshocks Pike RCT3 leads to a maximum of grip in the front, while a DT Swiss shock offers 130mm of rear travel. With Ergon-grips and the Terry Arteria saddle the bike is equiped with women-specific parts. In terms of drivetrains there is a joice between Shimano´s XT 2×11 and Sram´s GX groupset. All the other parts are either Raceface Next or Turbine and therefore strong but lightweight. In line with the Bold philosphy there is a joice between 29“ wheels or 27,5plus. The bikes can now be ordered/reserved through the webshop or a an authorized Bold-dealer. Available from May.
