Blackthorn Carbon GX Eagle hits a sweet spot of incredible pedaling
efficiency and downhill prowess for a well-balanced platform that’s
ready for all of your big trail outings. The stiff, durable carbon frame
is designed around our Split Pivot suspension system, which offers
excellent small-bump compliance yet pedals better than most other
all-mountain bikes can. 140 mm rear and 160 mm front travel soak up
drops, gaps, burly rock gardens, and all the other terrain you
encounter. SRAM’s GX Eagle group equips you with a wide enough gear
range to climb anything you put your legs to, and the four-piston brakes
let you dial down speed quickly enough to hit the perfect line.
Blackthorn Carbon GX Eagle is a dream rig, whether you’re sessioning
jump lines or exploring rugged backcountry trails.
