Overview
About this bike
Opus's Nelson 2 gives you 178mm of travel controlled by smooth, efficient virtual pivot point suspension. Whether pedaling, flowing downhill, plowing through rock gardens or hitting the big line, that rear end with Fox's Van R coil has you covered. The swingarm pivots on large diameter bearings that are longer lasting, smoother running and give you a stiff, quick-tracking rear end. Leading the way is a 180mm-travel Domain coil bolted to a 1.5-inch steerer. Regardless of speed, terrain or steepness, this thing has you covered. On top of all this, you've got DH-worthy specs like a SRAM X7 drivetrain, Husselfelt cranks and an FSA cockpit. Taking the landings are burly Mavic rims and when it's actually time to slow down, you've got the sick power of Avid Code discs.
