The soul of the X-Control remains the same, but it now benefits from the latest innovative technology, to make it even more efficient:

  • New geometry for 27,5″ wheels
  • FPS+ Suspension
  • Shimano XTR compatible
  • Compatible with telescopic seatposts
  • Carbon front triangle – Supreme 6 Alu rear triangle
It will be available in two differently specced versions, the 527 and the 727

With 120mm of suspension up front and 100mm at the rear, it’s ready to eat up the miles.

We’re looking forward for the first ride experience of the new carbon X-Control.
