The latest Juice 29er hardtail frame feature practical updates to its feature set and geometry without diving too deep into progressive geometry. Seat tube angle is slightly steeper for easier climbing, but it isn't super slack and low. It is a bike you can still ride with "old-school" techniques, but also can be ridden with a modern technique if you pick the right size and parts.
On this lively steel frame, you'll find lots of braze-ons and bosses for utiliity, sliding dropouts for versatility, and industry standards like 148mm Boost hub spacing and English threaded bottom bracket shell.
We wanted this to excel at rolling terrain and long days in the saddle exploring or bike packing. Not everybody wants or needs a bike optimized mainly for descending black diamond trails.
