SKU: the-frame-ht-gx-axs
Ready for trail action, made in Europe and weighing just 9.2 kilos – THE FRAME HT – GX AXS guarantees fun in any terrain

Description

Maximum ultimate, that is our philosophy. No matter whether we are developing carbon parts or a complete bike. With THE FRAME, we have set a benchmark. Our frame weighs a super-light 795 grams in size M, making it one of the lightest in the world. But it is not only the weight that makes it unique. THE FRAME is made in Europe. The frame is manufactured in Portugal (baking) and Germany (finishing) in cooperation with our technology partner Carbon Team. And the performance also stands out. The renowned BIKE magazine chose our custom THE FRAME build as the test winner in the 1.2025 issue in a comparison of race hardtails.

With THE FRAME HT, we are now taking it one step further. We present the ultimate hardtail as a series bike. Light. Fast. Stable. A bike for crossing the Alps and trail adventures. But also for your daily ride. The weight is sensational: THE FRAME HT weighs just 9.22 kg in the trail setup with 120 millimeters of travel, dropper post and 2.4-inch tires. If you want, you can configure the bike to be even lighter. THE FRAME HT offers a completely new feeling of acceleration and agility, without compromising on trail performance.

We have optimized every little detail of the frame. THE FRAME is baked as a one-piece monocoque in one piece, which guarantees a maximally light and stable frame. The frame is not painted. Why? It is so perfectly crafted that it doesn't need painting. THE FRAME has hollow titanium bottle cage bolts. Each one weighs just 1.06 grams and has our logo. It might not make you faster, but it shows the attention to detail that has gone into the frame.

We selected the components with the same passion. We offer THE FRAME HT with various configuration options so that everyone can choose the perfect setup for themselves. There are two platforms to choose from. THE FRAME HT – XX SL is our uncompromising race bike. THE FRAME HT – GX AXS is the fun-oriented trail variant. Even the basic version of our trail hardtail has the high-quality Sram GX AXS transmission drivetrain with electronic gear shifting. The DT Swiss XM1700 wheels are light and strong. Our carbon seatpost THE STRAIGHT is a visual and technical masterpiece. A Fox 34 SC Factory fork and powerful XT brakes round off the basic equipment.

You want a dropper post, our HYPERSADDLE handmade of carbon, or THREE ZERO XC wheels? Maybe even BITURBO RSX wheels? It's your choice. Put together THE FRAME HT according to your wishes!
