Overview
About this bike
29ers, once solely the domain of big-wheeled evangelists, have gone from being on the fringe of cycling to becoming de rigueur for anyone who rides on trails with roots, rocks and obstacles-meaning mountain bikers! Jump on GT's Karakoram 1.0 and you'll see why. For a nimble, easy-pedaling ride, it boasts GT's light, reliable 6061-aluminum frame, and for control over trail obstacles, you've got a bump-busting RockShox suspension fork with 100mm of travel. You also get dependable Alex wheels with knobby Maxxis tires and a slick-shifting Shimano 30-speed drivetrain with an XT rear derailleur so you can cruise over the climbs. And for the flight back down, powerful Avid hydraulic-disc brakes are at your fingertips.
