Overview
About this bike
It only takes a quick glance to see that Intense's Carbine 29 Expert Build has the guts of a champion. Sit astride the full carbon monocoque frame with 125-140mm of adjustable travel courtesy of the JS Tuned suspension and RockShox Monarch shock, and you'll start to understand what makes this trail shredder so rad. RockShox's Pike RC soaks up the big hits and small chatter with equal ease thanks to its 160mm of plush travel. All that squish comes in handy when you're rolling on DT Swiss 29-inch wheels with properly wide High Roller tires that annihilate rocks and roots. To add to the speed, Shimano's got you covered with an 11-speed Deore XT drivetrain that glides smoothly into the right gear for the climbs, the flats, and the descents. Speaking of descents, make sure you're in the perfect position to get extra zesty with Kind Shock's LEV Integra dropper post. Like we said, it just takes a quick glance.
