Shredding perfect singletrack, drifting round corners, hitting the climbs full gas. One massive adrenaline kick after another. Extremely lightweight, the Strive AL 8.0 Race stands apart with its focussed race setup that simply leaves the competition behind. The RockShox Monarch Plus RC3 shock responds instantly to the terrain, provides detailed surface feedback and has plenty of travel in reserve to ensure you don’t bottom out. Combined with the light and robust RockShox PIKE RCT3 Solo Air, you’ll always be in control on rough terrain.
DT Swiss EX 1501 Spline One wheels also keep weight down yet are strong, and with 25mm wide rims wrapped in Maxxis rubber, you’re perfectly equipped for extreme cornering and rapid acceleration. The Renthal cockpit with 780mm wide FatBar provides maximum control meaning you can glide across the trail just like Fabien Barel. Whether you’re flying down singletrack or putting the power down on tough climbs, the X01 groupset provides the perfect gear range and ensures the chain stays perfectly in line. The Strive AL 8.0 Race is ready for any challenge.
Our "raw club" colour option has a raw, untreated alloy base, which is given a coating of clear lacquer to protect the frame.
