The Breezer Supercell is an interesting looking bike because of the proprietary M Link, in the middle of the chain stay. With 120mm of rear wheel travel and 29″ wheels, Breezer says this is a do anything XC/Trail bike, that “can outclimb hardtails and descend with the conviction of an all-mountain machine.”

Joe Breeze has been designing and building mountain bikes for many years, and has tweaked the geometry of this bike, the “Repack” geo, to suit, what he feels, is many different types of riding and riders. If you’re looking for something a little different than the rest of your riding group, the Supercell might be exactly what you’re looking for. The bike also comes in two less expensive models, the Pro ($3149) and Expert ($2629).
