Overview
About this bike
The Talus 3 offers the stability of a mountain bike, yet it’s nimble enough for riding on pavement. The aluminum frame puts you in a comfortable position so you can easily see what’s up ahead. With three gears up front and seven in the back, you’ll always find the right gear for spinning up the hills. An 80mm travel SR Suntour XCM suspension fork smooths out rough pavement, rocks, and roots. For added grip off-road, the 27.5-inch wheels come with knobby 2.1-inch wide Kenda tires. Hydraulic disc brakes provide great stopping power to keep you rolling confidently through corners. Add a rear rack using the built-in eyelets, and the Talus 3 does double-duty as a commuter bike or city bike.
