Engineering & Trail Highlights
-
Custom-Tuned Air Suspension: Unlike entry-level mountain bikes that use heavy coil springs, the Active 10 features an SR Suntour XCR32-Air fork. This allows our technicians to precisely tune the suspension pressure to your body weight, ensuring a plush, responsive ride that entry-level forks simply cannot match.
-
Shimano Deore 2x11 Drivetrain: Reliability is the core of the Deore groupset. With a 22Speed range, you have the ultra-low gearing needed to conquer steep technical climbs and the top-end speed for fast descents, all with the crisp, dependable shifting Shimano is famous for.
-
Contessa Solution Geometry: Designed specifically for women and smaller-framed riders, the "Slope" top tube provides a lower standover height, offering increased confidence when mounting, dismounting, or navigating technical terrain.
-
High-Volume Stability: Equipped with Kenda Booster 2.4" tires, the Active 10 offers a massive contact patch. This translates to more grip in the corners and a "float" over roots and rocks that makes every trail feel smoother.
-
Powerful Hydraulic Braking: Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent, effortless stopping power in all weather conditions, ensuring you stay in total control regardless of the mud or rain.
