Description
Using the same frame geometry as the acclaimed 2010 Core 50 and having received many glowing reviews and best-in-test accolades themselves, we've focussed on getting the basics right, frames that offer confidence-inspiring handling, comfort and durability plus components that can handle the riding that these frames inevitably inspire.
If fun, ride quality and hassle-free use are your priorities, aim for the Core. With a lock-out equipped Rockshox Tora fork, the Core 10's focus is frame and fork quality. Wider bars, a shorter stem and long seat post plus a great frame and fork combo mean this is a bike you'll want to keep and upgrade as the drive-train parts get used.
