Shop all Yeti Cycles Shop sale Yeti CyclesWith the latest 12-speed SRAM GX Eagle™ drivetrain, the Yeti Cycles SB5 Carbon GX Eagle Complete Mountain Bike enables you to soar up hills and nimbly navigate back down with precision. Arguably the most versatile all-mountain bike in the Yeti stable, the SB5 was born on the trails of Colorado and represents everything a versatile trail bike should be. A carbon fiber frameset is both stiff and lightweight, while the tuneable Fox Performance suspension keeps things smooth yet lively. If you're looking for a pedal pony that'll excel on long, flowy singletrack, sporty descents, and everything in between, the Yeti Cycles SB5 Carbon GX Eagle Complete Mountain Bike is a steed worth staring at.
Carbon Fiber Frame & Swing Arm – By utilizing a less high modulus carbon than they do in their TURQ Series bikes, the Carbon Series maintains Yeti's award winning ride quality and technology standards, the only sacrifice being minor weight gains.
Switch Infinity Suspension – Switch Infinity utilizes a patented translating pivot that switches direction as the bike moves through its travel. This provides excellent anti-squat characteristics for superior pedaling performance as the pivot translates upward. As the system reaches the inflection point, the main pivot translates downward. The result is ideal suspension characteristics deeper into travel, creating a controlled and bottomless suspension feel.
Fox Performance DPS Shock – Fox's highest performing inline shock. FLOAT DPS shocks have fewer adjustments than Factory Series (no Open mode adjust tuning range), and have a black anodized air sleeve and body instead of Genuine Kashima Coat. A Performance graphics package ties in the black-on-black look.
Shock Adjustments – 3-Position Lever (Open, Medium, Firm) | Rebound Adjust | Air Spring Pressure Adjust
Internal Cable Routing – Internally molded carbon tubes inside of the frame for hassle-free cable routing.
Collet Axle System – Located on the pivots to reduce bearing wear.
Boost Hub Spacing Front and Rear
Integrated ISCG-05 Mounts
Tapered Inset Headtube
Custom Down Tube Protector & Chain Guards
Integrated Axle & Derailleur Hanger System
Fox 34 Performance Fork – Fox's Performance forks retain the same black anodized 7000 series aluminum upper tubes as Performance Elite, but have a different damper (FIT GRIP) with fewer adjustments.
Fork Adjustments – FIT GRIP Damper | 3-Position Lever (Open, Medium, Firm) | Air Spring Pressure | Rebound Adjust
