Diamondback Release Mountain Bike Bikes & Frames Full Suspension Over 120mm

Diamondback Release Mountain Bike. If you're thinking of going big on the trail, you need a bike that can handle a variety of terrain, big hits, and still be manageable on a long climb a bike like the 2017 Diamondback Release dual suspension mountain bike. With its slack geometry, precision shifting courtesy of the 1x11 speed SRAM drivetrain, and burly Suntour and X Fusion suspension, the Release takes trail hits in stride and delivers an incredible ride quality. The Release is meant to be ridden hard and fully enjoyed. Diamondback's new Level Link four bar suspension isolates the drivetrain and suspension inputs, resulting in a very efficient pedaling platform. The lower link stays in line with the chain as the suspension is compressed. This allows efficient power transfer to the rear wheel without feeding back through the drivetrain. At the neutral sag point, the upper link is always optimally positioned to react to trail inputs, whether you're pedaling hard or not. Combined with the modern geometry of the Release's aluminum frame and a low center of gravity, level link delivers supreme speed thanks to suspension efficiency. The Release features a SR Suntour Aion RC suspension fork with 150mm of travel, compression and rebound dampening, and a beefy tapered steerer. The X Fusion O2 Pro R rear shock smooths out nasty trail feedback. A 1x11 speed SRAM NX 1 all mountain drivetrain and Diamondback's very own 27.5 Blanchard 28R wheelset keep the bike moving forward at a strong clip. Kenda Nevegal 27.5x2.35 tires, a virtual gold standard in all mountain riding due to their massive and deep trail imprint, deliver great traction in virtually any terrain.
