The TUES is an absolute killer of a bike and embodies our motto Good Times in its purest form. The stiffness of the frame, the low center of gravity and the dynamic suspension system make it the perfect partner for bike parks, rough trails and high speed descents. The slack head angle, the generous reach and the 650B wheels keep you in control on any track while the progressiveness of its suspension will get you hooked on airtime in a hurry. Not only did our team riders take wins at the FEST Series and Rampage aboard the TUES, but also the 2016 overall World Cup title - the TUES packs quite the punch and handles the biggest jumps in the world with ease. Carbon or aluminum? The choice is yours. Beginners, park-rats, and pro racers will all be stoked with the various spec options on offer. All new for 2017 is the much anticipated TUES CF in XL, which riders above 1m87 in height will enjoy.

    The TUES AL is the machine that DIRT Magazine (UK) crowned “Downhill Bike of the Year” more than once. The low center of gravity and the generous reach are ultra-beneficial for stability, whether you’re in the air or bombing down the trail. Multi-butted tubing allowed us to get rid of unnecessary weight, to make sure the TUES does not turn into a sluggish mothership. At the same time, we added extra thickness where required to stand up to the strong forces generated in critical areas. The V4L rear linkage is our proven recipe for providing a linear and sensitive suspension response. Developed by YT, critically acclaimed and often prized, V4L is progressive throughout the travel to prevent excessive sagging and harsh bottom outs. It holds you up at mid-stroke and reacts only when it’s supposed to, namely to overcome obstacles on the track and not under the influence of pedaling forces.

    The TUES AL is our entry-level downhill bike. It offers solid parts, which will allow you to burn laps at the bike park as well as go H.A.M. on the race-track. The easy to set up 200mm BoXXer RC has enough in reserve for getting rowdy, and the reliable Kage RC shock with its steel spring irons out the bumps of the trail beneath you. The TUES AL is an awesome and sensible introduction to the world of downhill.

    TUES is the name of the game! Whether you are whoopin’ butts at races, going mental at the bike park, or performing the wildest stunts, our downhill bikes are gravity-oriented machines that have been designed for rough terrain and massive jumps. The TUES gets the most out of you and you’ll easily master doubles, drops, and tables.

    The TUES can take quite some punishment, but you should make sure to thoroughly check your bike for possible damage after every ride and to take good care of it. This includes regular maintenance of the suspension fork, shock absorbers, and bearings. If you keep to the maintenance schedule, you will enjoy your bike for a long time.
