Deciding a different approach was needed, they sought to combine race-ready geometry with rider-focused features, to ensure frames live up to their namesake and can handle seasons worth of abuse.<br> <br> <br> <br> Developed with Top-20 EWS rider Matt Stuttard and the Enduro World Series in mind, their 161 race bike, features 161mm of rear travel and forward-thinking geometry to descend as fast as possible, whilst reducing fatigue with a low effort climbing position. Under Matt’s skilled piloting, the 161 has already proven itself capable of Top 10 finishes. Learning from this, the more trail orientated 141 followed closely, offering a ride more suited to those without the Alps in their back garden, but still want something capable of the odd local enduro or two.<br> <br> <br> <br> You can check out everything <a href="https://www.privateerbikes.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Privateer</a> have to offer, including the awesome 161 and 141 by heading over to <a href="https://www.privateerbikes.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">privateerbikes.com</a>.<br> <br> <br> <br> Podcast Stuff<br> <br> <br> <br> My webstore is BACK!
