The mountain bike experience starts here.
With a redesigned frame that’s now lighter and more durable, along with a smooth-riding suspension fork, thru-axle hubs*, and a 1x drivetrain*, this aluminium hardtail is everything an aspiring MTB rider needs to evolve and advance.
To experience real trail riding at its best, you need a real mountain bike. That’s where the new Talon comes in. This hardtail combines sharp looks and design with true off-road capabilities, all within reach of most riders’ budgets. A lot of entry-level mountain bikes will only get you so far. As your skills progress and you push yourself farther, lower quality bikes can end up letting you down. The Talon is designed to grow with you. It’s built on a lightweight, durable ALUXX aluminium frame with geometry that’s optimised for its size-specific wheels and suspension fork. Tip-to-tail, the new Talon gives you everything you need to take your trail riding adventures to the next level.
Performance Factors:
Modern MTB Design
Tapered fork steerer tubes, quality components including a 1x drivetrain with clutch-equipped rear derailleurs, thru-axle hubs, internal cable routing (including dropper seatpost) and an integrated chainstay protector give aspiring trail riders room to grow.
Off-Road Control
New geometry is optimized for confident trail riding and two different wheel sizes (27.5 or 29-inch) depending on frame size. The geometry is also designed for front suspension with either an 80mm or 100mm fork depending on frame size. All models have clearance for high-volume tyres (up to 2.4-inch) for traction and grip on technical terrain.
Light And Durable
All-new ALUXX aluminium frame features updated shaping and a lighter overall weight for improved performance on off-road terrain.

Please note that our specifications may be impacted by manufacturer component substitution changes caused by high global demand for bikes and resulting supply chain issues in the bike industry. 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.
