Intense Carbine Foundation Bike 2019ROUGH, ROWDY, AND READY TO ENDUROThe Carbine has been transformed into a modern trail slayer. With an updated geometry and a longer reach for a more confidence inspiring ride. The JS Tuned suspension has been refined with longer links (including a carbon upper link) to optimize leverage curve, axle path and overall performance. This means plush, terrain gobbling action without sacrificing pedaling efficiency. 155mm of rear travel keeps it tracking smoothly over all types of terrain. This makes the new Carbine an uncompromising 29" enduro race machine.Intense pairs the Carbine Pro's high modulus carbon fiber frame with SRAM's 11-speed NX components that delivers a huge gear range to charge downhills, and then spin your way back up. 160/155mm of travel from the Rock Shox Yari fork and Deluxe rear shock will keep you on point. DT Swiss wheels wrapped in Maxxis rubber provide confidence when bombing downhill, and grip hard when railing high speed corners. Topped off with a cockpit by Intense, and Race Face Aeffect dropper post, the Carbine is ready for weekend cruises with your buds or the next Enduro race.REVIEWSBike Radar - "While the Carbine is marketed as an enduro bike, I think it also works well as a trail bike. A big sofa of a bike it is not, despite the travel numbers. Intense has created a bike that's intuitive to ride, and one that blurs the line between some big-wheeled, long travel monster and a short-travel trail sniper. " - Tom MarvinDirt Rag Mag - " Overall, the new Carbine is an unabashed beast of a bike that'll reduce big, chunky trail hits and drops into mere visual blips. It's more focused on one end of the trail spectrum than last year's version, which will narrow down the target audience to those who want such a big bike that'll roll over just about anything. In other words, it's a monster truck." - Zach WhiteBike Mag - "Despite its glued nature, the Carbine is no slouch on climbs. The VPP opposing linkage suspension, now referred to by Intense as 'JS Tuned,' does its job by creating firm efficiency any time pedal and chain tension is applied while still maintaining proper traction while grunting up steep climbs." - Will RitchieFeatures160mm travel front and 155mm travel rear gives you unparalleled confidence on the trail65.5-degree head angle achieves an aggressive geometry ready for any terrain29" wheels easily roll over all obstacles on the trailRock Shox suspension is buttery smooth day after dayShimano hydraulic brakes provide powerful and consistent braking power5-year limited warranty provided by Intense CyclesSRAM NX 11-speed drivetrain provides you with all the gears to make it up the steepest climbsSPECIFICATIONSFrameCarbine 29" Enduro Monocoque Carbon Frame.
