Diamondback Overdrive Pro 29er Mountain Bike Nashbar Exclusive Bikes & Frames Hardtail

Diamondback Overdrive Pro 29er Mountain Bike Nashbar Exclusive. Carbon fiber gets a lot of attention these days, but it was aluminum that was first used to build ridiculously light bikes. The Diamondback Overdrive Pro 29er mountain bike continues that high performance hardtail legacy by incorporating tried and true 6061 T6 aluminum in custom formed and butted tubing that exemplifies strength and light weight. Its 1 18 to 1.5 tapered head tube creates a stiff front end to deliver crisp, accurate steering, and the forged rear dropouts with a replaceable derailleur hanger ensure a serviceable, long life. Up front, the Fox 32 Float CTD 29 suspension fork gives you 100mm of travel plenty for blazing along cross country singletrack. The fork also features external rebound and lock out plus a 15mm thru axle for stiffness and security under acceleration. Speaking of tried and true, the Shimano 2x10 drivetrain is the epitome of reliability, strength, and precision. Shifting is handled by a Shimano SLX Rapidfire 2x10 setup on the bars, a Shimano Deore front derailleur, plus the exemplary Shimano XT Shadow SGS rear derailleur. There's also a Shimano SLX 3824T crankset as well as a bombproof Shimano HG50 10 speed cassette. Oodles of precision stopping power is supplied by the Shimano Deore hydraulic disc brakes, complete with XT rotors. The fast rolling 29 wheels feature incredibly reliable SL7 aluminum doublewall rims as well as 32 hole SL7 aluminum hubs. Rounding out the wheelset is a set of Schwalbe Rapid Rob 29x2.25 tires that sport an aggressive, all around tread pattern for incredible bite plus a kevlar belt to maximize puncture resistance.
