DeVinci's Django Carbon GX Eagle Complete Mountain Bike is a do-it-all trail bike from the Canadian based firm, built to cover ground quickly and with grin-inducing playfulness using its combination of speedy 29in wheels and lively Split Pivot rear suspension design. Offering 120mm of rear travel and 140mm up front via proven Fox suspension, this bike is a rocket ship when it needs to be but stays composed when the trail gets seriously technical. And with its balanced geometry, you'll have the stability you need for tricky downhills paired with cross-country efficiency when it comes time to climb. This versatility is enhanced by the ability to adjust the geometry between Low and High settings, letting you tune the bike's handling for more capable descending, or for a little more efficiency on the uphills.The defining feature of DeVinci's full-suspension mountain bikes is the Dave Weagle-designed Split Pivot suspension. Dave Weagle is well known in the industry as the engineer behind DW-Link, and his designs deliver some of the best suspension characteristics on the market. Split Pivot's basic design consists of a main pivot and a concentric rear axle pivot separated by the chainstay (hence the name Split Pivot), as well as the brake link (seatstay) that floats between the concentric rear axle pivot and the rocker link that controls the shock. The floating brake link isolates braking forces from acceleration and suspension forces, resulting in uncompromising traction when you're charging across rough terrain--even while braking or pedaling. Many other designs have a tendency to firm up a bit under braking, reducing suspension sensitivity through choppy terrain and thus losing some traction. DeVinci's Split Pivot remains active, soaking up braking bumps and squared-edged hits effortlessly while retaining a supportive mid-stroke for pedaling, climbing, and popping off lips and rollers.As we touched on earlier, the Django's geometry strikes a fine balance between ag...
