While the other MTB sites focus on the “booth babes” and “girls of Interbike,” we thought we’d do something different and focus on the mountain bikes (weird, we know). Here are just a few bikes we found ourselves drooling over at the show.
Santa Cruz Blur TR. Carbon, 5 inches of travel, 26″ wheels.
Felt Nine. Carbon hardtail 29er. Stock weight: 21-22 lbs.
LaPierre Team DH.
Look 920. FS carbon.
