After a decade plus of testing, race-winning performance and a line of e-MTB bikes that have been praised for their incredible ride performance, Sixfinity is expanding in our line.

THE HELL YES OF SIXFINITY.
Built around the World Cup-winning suspension, Sixfinity gives riders unprecedented traction, composure while pedaling and superior efficiency. Bold statement? Yes, but consider the facts. Unlike any other platform we’ve ever experienced, its unique six-bar design allows endless tunability for all platforms and assist levels – from DH to eMTB. Whether acoustic or e-powered, Sixfinity can precisely control acceleration and deceleration responses, while tailoring leverage rates for the intended use case. All with executional fidelity few can achieve.

MASTER OF THE SIX BAR.
All six bars control the wheel path and drive the shock for independent custom-tuned control of acceleration and deceleration - tuned for every frame size.

KINEMATICS
Sixfinity can achieve maximum control across three key kinematic metrics: Acceleration Response (Anti-Squat), Deceleration Response (Anti-Rise), and Leverage Rate. Tunability is nearly infinite, making Sixfinity highly versatile, and allowing us to tune the desired kinematics independently.

STRUCTURE
With Sixfinity, the loads are optimally distributed, resulting in increased structural triangulation and durability through the travel range. The Sixfinity design enables deliberate, optimal bearing selection and is not constrained by packaging, ensuring the correct bearing is used at each pivot.

SCALING
In addition to the increased kinematic control, Sixfinity enables optimized kinematics for geometric scaling. Each frame size is treated as a unique design, with like parts carefully repositioned to achieve the desired kinematics and geometry, with hardpoints uniquely optimized for each size.

ACCELERATION RESPONSE.
Anti-squat can be tuned precisely at sag to better balance “pedal anywhere” efficiency with descending performance.

With Sixfinity, we maintain the same dual- behavior anti-squat strategy as we deliver with Switch Infinity, but with even greater control. Sixfinity allows additional anti-squat tuning based on power input, travel and ride intent. Sixfinity Anti-squat magnitudes scale inversely with power assist. The unassisted (power limited) LT anti-squat magnitude is greater than their assisted (traction limited) LTe counterpart. This results in the best balance of efficiency and traction for drastically different systems.

Sixfinity provides a greater fidelity in controlling both the shape and magnitude of the anti-squat curves, while allowing a wide range of anti-rise and leverage outputs, all while balancing efficiency and traction for the exact desired kinematic blend.

DECELERATION RESPONSE.
Sixfinity can be tuned for desired traction while balancing geometry preservation while braking, a key to a well-tuned deceleration response.

The magnitude of the LT anti-rise curve is slightly lower than its SB160 predecessor, striking an ideal balance between traction and geometry preservation when braking.

With carefully tuned anti-rise magnitudes that remain consistent throughout the travel, Sixfinity can stand poised for the inevitable big hit that’s coming when you’re on the brakes - Providing predictable performance in all braking scenarios.

It’s this trait – combined with the switching behavior of the acceleration response that puts Sixfinity in a performance class all its own.

RACE WINNING RATES.

With the LT, you can adjust the Sixfinity progression rate to fine tune to your riding style and shock choice with the flip of a chip. Choose racy and consistent, balanced, or plush then poppy with more bottom out resistance. We again focus on the linear shape of our leverage curves on the LT suspension to provide consistent, confidence-inspiring predictability.

GEO THAT CRACKS THE CODE.

LT geometry couldn’t be conjured on a whiteboard or noodled in software. Numbers learned and proven from a direct lineage to the winningest enduro bike in history, and years of testing Sixfinity prototypes to explore a more balanced rider position.

Founded on a design that does away with the need for specific frames for MX or dual 29. Untethered rider stability and front-wheel traction with longer size-specific chain stays for winning speed and rider balance – delivering a bigger balanced sweet spot for all riders.

Fore/aft balance delivers intuitive handling that will have riders reveling while climbing and descending,
producing more confidence at speed than any Enduro bike we have designed.

Enter the sweet spot of Enduro geometry.

LONGER, SIZE-SPECIFIC MODULAR DROPOUTS.

Longer rear-centers for each frame size work to optimize front/rear balance, boost climbing performance, and improve descending stability and speed. Want to enhance this even more? You can further adjust with an additional +10mm to match your preference. Larger rear center length adjustments between sizes ensures that riders of any size enjoy a more balanced feel and increased traction.

CHANGE THE WHEEL KEEP THE GEOMETRY.

The LT is truly tunable for the widest spectrum of riders looking to get the most out of a long travel rig. A flip-chip allows riders switch between dual-29 or MX setups with zero compromise to geometry.

Another chip lets you slacken the geo by an additional 0.5°, with a 6mm reduction to BB height when running MX wheels.
