The Procaliber 9.6 Gen 3 is a carbon hardtail MTB with a need for speed. It's built for XC racing, packing in vibration-damping IsoBow technology that flexes with the trail to reduce chatter, and aggressive XC geometry that's confident, capable and nimble. It comes ready to rip with a 12-speed Shimano XT/SLX drivetrain and RockShox Reba RL fork.
It's right for you if...
You've got race days on your mind and the only cure is more hardtail. You want a bike that helps smooth the trail with vibration-damping tech, plus a drivetrain that you can count on to deliver smooth shifts under pressure.
The tech you get
An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with IsoBow trail-smoothing tech. A RockShox Reba RL fork with 120 mm of travel, a Solo Air spring, Motion Control damper and remote lockout. A curated blend of Shimano SLX and XT 12-speed components, hydraulic brakes, a Bontrager Line Dropper post and tubeless Bontrager Kovee Comp 29" wheels.
The final word
The Procaliber 9.6 Gen 3 is a cross-country hardtail that's ready to deliver. It pairs a light and nimble carbon frame with trail-smoothing IsoBow tech and upgraded components where they matter most – like the Shimano XT derailleur and RockShox Reba RL fork.

We recommend confirming the specifications with your local Evo Cycles showroom if you have any questions.
Bike Weight: Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on frame size, finish, hardware and accessories. The most accurate way to determine any bike's weight is to have your local showroom weigh it for you.
