Intense Tracer Pro Bike 2019THE PERFECT BALANCE OF BEAUTY AND AGGRESSIONBirthed into the Intense family back in 1998, the Tracer has become an undeniable force on many race scenes. Over the years, it has seen various evolutions and editions that continuously place riders on the podium time and time again. The newest rendition, surprisingly, has yet again improved on its already impressive predecessors. No doubt, it's a direct result of Jeff Stebers himself imparting a certain bit of magic into these new ponies that only comes from spending more of his time sitting in the designated dreamer and designer chairs.With it's all new JS-Tuned Suspension system and Enduro Link, the 2019 Intense Tracer gains a tangible increase in playfulness and a pleasing "poppy" feel. With 12x148mm Boost dropouts, and no longer having to be designed around a front derailleur, the rear triangle is now symmetrical. The result being additional rigidity. Different shock and lower link placement help deliver an enduro racing specific suspension curve that took over a year and eight different test mules to perfect. The Intense Tracer 2019 is a true best of breed, born into an American racing brand with "Podium Topper" essentially hand carved into its DNA.Your Intense Tracer Expert will arrive at your doorstep with a SRAM X01 Eagle 12-speed drivetrain to handle the gears and a set of XT 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes control the fears. A Carbon Descendant crankset helps deliver the pedal power straight to the DT-Swiss wheels. Those get wrapped in Maxxis Minion DHR rubber. The cockpit is comprised of an Intense Recon stem, Carbon handlebar and the Fox Transfer dropper seat post is topped with a Fabric Scoop saddle.REVIEWSPink Bike - " Intense, in collaboration with Cero Design Studio, has successfully reforged the Tracer from one of the more versatile trail bikes in recent history into a sharp-performing enduro racer that could double as an epic park shredder. Intense says that the 2017 Tracer is an evolutionary step, but I would describe the Tracer's transformation as a metamorphosis. The playful, ready-for-anything trail bike has enlisted in enduro boot camp and graduated with honors." - Richard CunninghamBike Radar - " The new Tracer is a rough terrain charger that's flat-out fast down the hill and punchy up. It's a lightweight enduro heavyweight. It really does do a lot of things well, it's versatile enough to use as an all-rounder for most everything and it absolutely carries a big stick." - James LoveBike Mag - "The new Tracer doesn't ask you to sit down, shut up, and hold on. It wants you to take the wheel." - Travis EngelFeatures160mm travel front and 165mm travel rear gives you unparalleled confidence on the trail65.5-degree head angle achieves an aggressive geometry ready for any terrain27.5" wheels easily roll over all obstacles while maintaining maneuverabilityFox Factory Kashima suspension is buttery smooth day after dayShimano XT 4-piston hydraulic brakes provide powerful and consistent braking power5-year limited warranty provided by Intense CyclesSRAM X01 Eagle drivetrain provides you with all the gears to make it up the steepest climbsSPECIFICATIONSFrameTracer 275 Optimized Layup Monocoque UD Carbon Front and Rear Triangle, Carbon Top Link, Internal cable Routing, Integrated protectors, w/ BOOST 148 x12 mm spacing, 165 mm travelForkFox Factory 36 float RC2 FIT w/Kashima coating.
