Ellsworth MK3 Moment Frame / £1299.99 (SRP £1699.99)
The all new 2009 model Moment !
Ellsworth´s most versatile bike has now been revised to near perfection.
The new Moment keeps its six inches of travel and optimized geometry of its predecessors and adds the below revisions that make this dream bike a reality.
MK3 Revisions
Sleeker rocker arms.
New dual-formed chainstays for better mud and tyre clearance and additional crank clearance.
Lower stand over height.
Newly shaped and formed, 100% USA made tubing for increased stiffness.
Versatility and set up flexibility are what make the Moment a favorite of both XC and freeride riders. You can build it either as a six inch travel, sub-30 lb trail bike or as a freeride machine and the Moment will still climb any mountain and do an all out descent with ease. Look for big hit legend Josh Bender to have a new Moment in his fleet this year.
With Ellsworths 4-bar, Horst-pivot ICT design, this is a bike that has excellent climbing and descending capabilities, something that is not seen too often.
Since the introduction of the MK1 Moment in 2004 we have found it to be one of the best all-rounders going. Our many custom builds have seen all sorts, from lightweight trail bikes to freeride builds.
Full build options can start as low as £2300 with our excellent frame package deals contact us for more information.
