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 Float X Performance Shock – New damping tune improves bump absorption and control. Reservoir design made for aggressive riding. Three on-the-fly settings to match every rider's needs. EVOL air sleeve improves responsiveness and sensitivity.

Internal Cable Routing
Custom Down Tube Protector & Chain Guards
Integrated Axle & Derailleur Hanger System
Collet Axle System – Located on the pivots to reduce bearing wear.
Integrated ISCG-05 Mounts
Tapered Inset Headtube
Fox 36 Performance Boost Fork – The 36 has been completely redesigned with a highly tunable air spring and updated damping tune that gives the rider total control over the feel of the fork. It offers an excellent balance of small bump sensitivity and mid-stroke support, providing increased tire grip, reduced fatigue and superb handling needed for all-mountain riding and enduro racing.

SRAM X01 Carbon 30T Eagle Crankset – SRAM designed the new X01 Eagle™ crankset for riders who feel most stylish when they stand on top of the podium. This is a completely re-engineered design, employing their proprietary CARBON TUNED™ lay-up technology. Built tough, to handle aggressive lines through rock gardens and big hits wherever you find them, the new X01 Eagle™ is the strongest, stiffest, lightest crankset available. Combined with the new Eagle™ direct mount chainrings, and as an integral part of the Eagle™ drivetrain, this is a crankset that gives your ride a winning style—assuming you’re into that sort of thing.
SRAM X01 Eagle 12-Speed Shifter – Tucked neatly beneath your handlebars, the X01 Eagle™ X-ACTUATION™ trigger shifter is the nerve center of the Eagle™ drivetrain. Its internal works have been updated to include a 12th gear, and improved to enhance trigger feel, precision and durability. Whether you’re 4 stages into the race or days away from civilization, the X01 Eagle™ trigger shifter is your faithful 1x touch point.
SRAM X01 Eagle 12-Speed Rear Derailleur – This new derailleur not only answers the Eagle™ drivetrain’s need for greater capacity, but it’s also the next evolution of SRAM's proven, 1x-specific X-HORIZON™ design. The larger, 14-tooth X-SYNC™ lower pulley allows 10- to 50-tooth cassette capacity in this relatively compact design, and also adds to Eagle’s overall smooth-pedaling feel. SRAM's new, Type-3 ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH™ features a smoother torque curve for a quieter, more consistent operation and feel. CAGE LOCK™ has been moved back and out of the way, protecting it from trail debris. And a redesigned, robust mounting system further improves the Eagle™ derailleur’s performance and overall durability.
SRAM X01 Eagle 12-Speed Chain – It might look normal from the outside, but the engineering inside this incredible new chain design that makes possible a gear range previously found only in 2-chainring drivetrains. And it’s also the biggest contributor to the Eagle™ drivetrain’s ultra-smooth, precise, durable and quiet performance. The Eagle™ chain’s links have a smooth radius, with no sharp edges or chamfers, which yield a significant reduction in noise, friction and wear on chainrings and cassette cogs. This design also allows for a flatter plate, which means more consistent chain riveting and greater overall strength. HARD CHROME™ technology extends the chain’s optimal performance life.
SRAM Guide R Brakeset – What’s it going to take to ride that line? It’s steep. It’s rocky. You’ve passed it a hundred times. But not this time. With the all-new SRAM Guide R, you have the power. Proven 4-piston calipers give you smooth, one-finger control. Features like Reach Adjust let you dial it in just right. And Guide perfectly complements other SRAM components and gives you flawless performance on every ride. Now featuring the World Championship-winning S4 caliper with Bleeding Edge™ and Heat Shield technologies.
SRAM Centerline Rotors – The new Centerline Rotor was designed to keep the center of friction consistent throughout rotation thereby minimizing vibration offering consistent performance and a quiet ride.
DT Swiss E1900 Boost Wheelset – Enduro riders push the limits of traction. The E 1900 SPLINE® is the ideal wheel for this purpose, with its 25-mm-wide extra-strong aluminum rims and solid wheel construction. The weight-saving details such as the hub and the spherical DT Squorx aluminum nipples will keep the riders confidential smile also facing uphill. After all, the best trails are rarely to be found around the cable cars.
Maxxis Minion DHF EXO Tubeless (Front Tire) – The Minion DHF was designed for the often loose and muddy conditions of aggressive all-mountain terrain. The DHF incorporates ramped knobs for low rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs to increase gripping edges, giving straight-line control and precise cornering.
Maxxis Aggressor EXO Tubeless (Rear Tire) – The Aggressor is designed for high-speed modern mountain bike trails. Advanced knob shaping creates extra gripping edges, and reinforced side knobs offer enhanced stability when cornering at speed. An all-around trail tire excelling on everything from loose cross country race courses to heavy all-mountain riding.
Race Face Turbine Dropper Post – A patented hybrid design that couples mechanical and hydraulic locking technologies, inspired by MTB disc brakes. The rider's body weight is supported with a mechanical lock; meaning a solid connection and less potential for failure over time. Lower air pressures and static seals offer unrivaled performance, control, and reliability. Turbine also operates in below-freezing temperatures making it perfect for Fat Bikes and cold weather riding. Less down time for service equals more saddle time on the trails.
