Rhyme Expert Carbon 27.5

2018 Rhyme Expert Carbon 27.5

After one ride on the Rhyme Expert 27.5, you'll never be merely "riding trail" again. It's a bold statement to make, but the increase in traction, control, and floatation that its 27.5 x 2.8" tires provide is nothing short of revolutionary. And then, of course, there's the rest of the bike.

To start, it lives by the philosophy that more tire volume results in more speed. It might be a claim that sounds flipped on its head, but one ride and it'll have you shouting this sentiment from the rooftops. The big tires put out more traction, more floatation, and better handling without sacrificing anything to efficiency on climbs.

It features our FACT 9m carbon fiber for the bulk of the construction in order to provide an ultra-lightweight, strong, and stiff frame. The carbon molding process also allowed us to revolutionize how you carry your trail essentials with the revolutionary SWAT™ Door found at the down tube. This compartment will fit a tube, a tool, and pump without rattling or compromising the structural integrity of the frame.

And when you factor in a build spec that has SRAM's 12-speed GX Eagle one-by shifting, powerful Guide R hydraulic disc brakes, a FOX 34 Performance fork with 150mm of travel, and a whole host of women's-specific components, from the saddle to the custom-tuned RockShox Monarch RT3 shock, you have a bike that will have you never looking back—unless it's to see the girls eating your dust.
