The Sewanee represents a new development in full suspension cross country race bikes born directly from the desires of Geoff Kabush and the Team Maxxis squad. Great feedback and concise direction from the team have enabled us to further improve on the bike we believed could not be improved. Long Stroke and Short Stroke versions give the rider the ability to choose a race machine for their locality or preference.
Available in two distinct flavors: The Long Stroke (LS) or Short Stroke (SS). The best race forks are available in different lengths of travel and we're the first company to deliver the same choice with your frame.

  • Feather light cross country full-suspension design crafted from 3Al/2.5V titanium.
  • Biaxially ovalized down tube backbone increases stiffness at the bottom bracket.
  • The Sewanee features Fox RP3 Shock with adjustable ProPedal technology.
  • The XC geometry is optimized for 80mm - 100mm forks.
  • The CLR Balanced Ratio Suspension design features a titanium rocker and 60mm of rear wheel vertical travel. This is a new twist on a single rocker design.
