- There used to be a time when you had to choose between trail bike performance and cross-country race ready weight. Not any more. Say hello to the Ninety-Six XT. It builds on the speedy genes of our short travel race winner with a CF4 carbon frame and adds a whole new layer of capability thanks to a longer travel 120 mm Fox 34 SL Performance fork paired to 100 mm out back. Add in fast rolling tyres, a long travel dropper post and a super smooth Shimano XT Di2 wireless drivetrain and brakes and you're ready to rock.
