MTB Frames FAQ
What is an MTB Dirt/Slopestyle Frame?
The frame is the centerpiece. Unlike classic trail bikes, these frames are more compact, stronger, and more agile. They are built to withstand jumps, tricks, and hard landings. A rough distinction is made between Hardtails (front suspension only) and Full Suspension (rear shock).
How is an MTB Frame constructed?
- Head Tube
- Usually Tapered (conical) to accommodate modern, stiff forks. The head angle determines handling: Steep = agile (Dirt), Slack = stable at high speed (Enduro/Freeride).
- Rear Triangle & Dropouts
- On dirt frames often horizontal (for singlespeed chain tension). On Enduro/Freeride frames usually designed for thru-axles (148x12mm Boost) and derailleurs.
- Bottom Bracket
- Often threaded (BSA/Euro BB) for easy maintenance and creak-free performance.
What materials are used?
- Chromoly Steel (4130 CrMo)
- The classic in the Dirt/Street sector. Slightly heavier, but extremely robust and lively. Ideal for street and pump tracks.
- Aluminum (6061-T6)
- Lighter and stiffer. Standard for race bikes and almost all full-suspension frames (Enduro/Slopestyle), as complex shapes for shock mounts can be realized here.
What do the specifications mean?
| Term | Explanation | Examples / Available |
|---|---|---|
| Travel | How much movement the rear frame offers. | 100mm (Slopestyle) to 200mm (Freeride) |
| Top Tube & Reach | Determines how stretched you stand. Reach is the modern measure (bottom bracket to head tube horizontal). | Reach: 460mm - 500mm |
| Hub Spacing | Width of the rear hub. | 135x10mm (Dirt Standard), 148x12mm (Boost Standard) |
| Seat Angle | Important for Enduro: The steeper (e.g. 78 deg), the better you pedal uphill. | 77 - 79 deg (Climb friendly) |
