Fully mountain bike
Your mountain bike Fully, because of the adrenaline... If there is any drug that you can't talk about, it's our body's own chemistry. Many can't get enough of their adrenaline kicks, and they mainly indulge in the really hard trails in our lush nature.
The majority want a fully
Only 38 percent still want hardtails, while the majority prefers a touch more wildness and thus full-suspension bikes. Short for full-suspension mountain bike, the fully is a bike with full suspension, which allows you to conquer even the most demanding trails. These bikes are suitable for extremes, when you really want to push every limit and aren't afraid of moments of shock, but actually seek them out. Nothing wakes us up more than danger, nothing challenges us more than our own limits. We love fullys because their design appeals to our irrationality. It seems as if these bikes are encouraging us to go further and say goodbye to boredom – to finally unleash the beast within us..
Be wild and free, do something that has absolutely nothing to do with the dreary everyday and restrictive conventions. Become one with the unsparing nature, experience authenticity, feel pain, whether it's aching muscles or burning abrasions. You are one of the Vikings among bikers, gladly exchanging your restrictive suit for sweat-soaked jerseys and goose bumps. Sharp blades of grass, gnarled roots, thick branches, rocks and stones... even Indiana Jones couldn't experience more adventure than you can on your fully. Even the little outbursts of everyday life can count when you cycle to and from work via detours, while you feel your muscles harden. Your excursions are true sources of youth.
Many employers have long since recognized that it also brings them many advantages to jump on this bandwagon and support their employees' biking. After all, a colleague who cycles arrives at work much fitter and more motivated than someone who has had to sit frozen in a car and suffer through congested streets. That is why some companies already offer showers and changing rooms, which has been particularly encouraged by the leasing boom (read more about our leasing offers here). In the best case scenario, this means that you can even use sweat-inducing routes before and after work. Your riding style has to meet the highest standards so that your bike can do what you want it to do. This will make you an unbeatable team. And that's exactly where we want to support you. With our help and expertise, you will find your bike!
Full-suspension across borders
You relax best by conquering hard trails and steep slopes. Having just front suspension is not enough for you, because you have more plans for your bike. Thanks to the rear suspension, even the last impacts are absorbed, which guarantees you control on the most difficult sections of the route. You have your bike under control, not the other way around. Your carbon or aluminum frame absorbs further excess energy. Expect increased maintenance, as the suspension elements and other moving parts must be kept in good condition to ensure that your riding pleasure remains untarnished.
From the outset, you have to dig a little deeper into your wallet for a fully, so that you can fully enjoy single trails as well as narrow, unpaved paths with rough gravel. The good thing about it: you can lock your rear shock and thus also enjoy riding on paved roads. Otherwise, your bike adapts perfectly to your riding style, forgives small mistakes and promises you the best possible safety in rough terrain. Get to where you want to be quickly, whether it's steeply uphill or down into the valley over sloping forest paths. You can choose between various suspension options. From 80 mm for relaxed tours to 240 mm for extreme conditions, everything is possible. As a rough guide, a larger suspension travel promises more safety and comfort, but it also adds to the weight.
Another difference is the type of suspension. Steel and air suspensions are possible, with the latter being the most common. Adjustable according to your weight, air suspensions impress with their reliability. On the other hand, the steel version is only recommended for extreme bikers. So if you are one of those resilient cyclists who subject their bike to the "worst", then go for the steel spring damper and get started... If you cruise uphill and downhill as soft as butter, you always have the option of adjusting the suspension to adapt your bike's response if you want to make your pedaling energy more manageable again. For fullys, it may be advisable to choose the 27.5-inch version if you value maneuverability more than roll-over behavior, smooth running and traction. Let our experts advise you on this.
Or would you prefer a Fattie?
Depending on your needs, you can sometimes even do without suspension, after all, the special tires simply iron out a number of bumps. No matter the terrain, others will be able to see the pure joy on your face. At the same time, you can also choose to stay rather affordable and stable, depending on the material, or go for the lighter and simply higher-quality option with carbon. The durability of carbon speaks for itself.
Comparison of full-suspension models:
All bike disciplines require a high level of physical fitness, endurance and skill. Furthermore, they have in common the fact that they are characterized by significant differences. That is why various bike specifications have been developed from the full-suspension range. These ensure that your abilities and reactions are optimally supported in the respective area. Whether it's high speed downhill, energy-intensive biking for several hours, or experiencing pure pleasure while trail riding: nothing stands in the way of your desire to explore and even meet the demands of professional riders.
ALL MOUNTAIN
All-mountain bikes are among the most popular fullys. This specification stands for the perfect all-rounder. Climbing is no problem, and the downhill ride is full of fun. Accordingly, tours with a high proportion of uphill sections and single trails are among the main areas of use. You can also show off your skills in bike parks. You can easily master uneven terrain and hard maneuvers with all-mountain fullys, overcoming changing ground conditions during your ascents and descents. Stay focused and you'll conquer the next few meters right in front of you... Thanks to a central, compact seating position, AMs are efficient fun-bringers weighing up to 14.5 kg.
ENDURO
Do you like the maximum? Then an enduro bike is perfect for you ("endurance" for stamina and "duro" – Spanish for hard). The focus is on single tracks and bike parks alike, and enduro races can only be mastered with the appropriate bikes. Tougher sections of the route are easier to handle thanks to the stiffer frames and longer suspension travel. Equipped with wide tires and deep treads, narrow paths and rocky terrain can be conquered at high speeds. This places high demands on the material, and all components must be light and robust to ensure optimal maneuverability. Enduro bikes are professional bikes. Make sure you have very high-quality brakes, because your off-road maneuvers require optimal reliability in this regard. With an AM or Enduro, you'll have no problem getting up or down hills. Our quality bikes are designed for that. With a steep seat angle, for example, your pedaling energy is perfectly converted.
FREERIDE - Spectacular
Sturdy and heavy (up to 18 kg). With these bikes, you can show off your skills with flips and tricks. You primarily want to conquer rocky descents. However, climbing uphill with these bikes is very arduous. You need extremely stable components to get through your demanding downhill sessions and shine with freeride maneuvers and in bike parks. Show off your creativity, skills and technique. Direct steering with minimal weight gives you full control. Compact yet solid, your freeride bike is the perfect machine – designed for jumps and overcoming technically demanding obstacles.
DOWNHILL – Power and concentration
As the name suggests, this describes exciting and very risky downhill rides. Your bike must withstand top speeds of up to 80 km/h, drops of over 3 meters and jumps of up to 19 meters. The steering angle is smaller, and there are extremely long spring deflections between 180-220 mm to cushion even the most violent impacts. To get to the top, you should treat yourself to a lift, because they are not designed for that. These bikes are among the most specialized bikes, which is why they are only suitable for the breakneck "downhill rush".
Other types include:
Marathon: with a focus on the chassis, with a maximum weight of 12 kg
Tour: As the name suggests, these fullys are designed for longer tours, with a stretched, i.e. somewhat more comfortable, seating position. Maximum 13.5 kg
Meanwhile, the boundaries between the hardtail and fully variants are beginning to blur. We have therefore only listed the usual classifications here, as there have been hardly any significant developments in the transition area so far.
