Boo Bicycles Boo RS-M Mountain Bike (2017)

We all know what they say about hardtails–they’re harsh, unforgiving beasts that are difficult to ride for more than 60 minutes, right?  The Boo RS-M will make you think again.

That description may be suitable for carbon hardtails on the market today but not the RS-M, a mountain bike that is engineered to be ridden fast and comfortably for many hours at a time.

How is this possible?  Two words: dendrocalamus strictus.  Our unique species of Iron Bamboo, one of the stiffest on the planet, is unique compared to other frame materials.  It’s not carbon, it’s not Ti, it’s not Al, it’s not steel…and while it has certain traits in common with many of those materials, the special combination is our secret sauce.
