Details

Fluid VLT Wordmark

Whether you’re ripping fast flowy singletrack, putting the power down on punchy climbs, or tearing the tires off in the corners, the Optic continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible on a short travel trail bike.

NEW TECHNOLOGY

With 140mm/125mm of travel, the Optic condenses years of technology from long travel bikes into a lightweight package that’s as comfortable tearing up climbs as it is tackling challenging descents.

The VPSHP suspension layout provides increased rearward axle path and an idler to manage pedal feedback, keeping Optic’s playful roots, while punching above its weight when the trails get rough.

GEOMETRY

Coming in five frame sizes (1,2,3,4,5) to support rider heights up to 6’5" (196cm), allows you to choose the frame size that best fits your body and riding preferences.

Rear centres and seat tube angles are varied by frame size to ensure consistent rider weight distribution, and short seat tubes with long dropper posts keep the saddle out of the way on technical descents.

FORCE SEPARATION

Optic’s High Pivot Horst Link suspension provides control of anti-rise, which is a fancy way of saying braking forces and suspension action operate pretty much independent of one another, so your suspension works its best on or off the brakes.

PRECISION KINEMATICS

Large volume air springs, precision leverage curves and custom shock tunes provide an ideal balance of bump sensitivity and the support you need to feel connected to the trail. 50mm shock stroke and reduced leverage accommodates heavier riders while still ensuring proper setup for lighter folks.

SIZE & STYLE

Fully-committed, aggressively playful performance featuring size-specific Rear- Centres & Seat Tube Angles across all 5 frame sizes, giving you the best chance to find the perfect fit for your size & style.

YOU DO YOU

Optic Carbon is available with dual 29” wheels and one 29”/27.5” MX wheel model so you can toe the line, or let your hair down. Plus, you can buy the Missing Links later if you get curious about how the other side rides.

CARBON FRAME

Full carbon fibre frame and stays are engineered to optimize strength, stiffness and light weight, ensuring you hit the line you want every time and intuitively navigate the toughest terrain.

RIDE ALIGNED™

Perfect fit, dialed handling and personalised setup in minutes.

The Ride Aligned™ Design System matches each Optic to the human who rides it with Rider-First geometry and suspension that’s precision tuned in minutes to you and terrain you ride with the Ride Aligned™ Bike Setup Guide.
