Yeti Cycles SB140 CLR GX Eagle AXS 29in Mountain Bike

Lunch laps are definitely a menu staple here, and the new Yeti SB140 Lunch Ride is ready to take on anything we throw at it. Yeti's engineers reworked the C/Series carbon layup for a better combination of torsional stability and flexibility while maintaining the time-tested dependability and responsiveness it is known for. Yeti's patented translating pivot design of their Switch Infinity rear suspension changes direction as we push the bike through its travel for impressive amounts of traction for technical climbs and even more technical descents.

Crank Brothers Enduro Synthesis wheels are tuned to maximize grip up front and high-speed stability in the rear so we can slay our lines no matter how chundery the trail gets. Yeti designed the frame with plenty of room for a long dropper post on every size and spec'd the OneUp dropper, which allows us to adjust our travel by 10 or 20mm if we find ourselves needing a little less ...
