Prefer fast rolling 29 inch wheels? Try the Clockwork 129.

 

The Orange Clockwork has grown into more of a family than a solitary model. A family of bikes where capability is key. These siblings bring different rolls to their functional heritage.

The new Clockwork 137 sits between the Clockwork 127 and the Crush, firmly hitting a sweet spot for serious minded riders. While the Clockwork 127 is far from sedate, the Crush is a full-gas aggressive hardtail. The Clockwork 137 is the hardtail to fill that gap – fast and furious.

10mm longer in the toptube and a degree slacker in the headangle than the Clockwork 127, the Clockwork 137 gives the cockpit reach and attitude of a fast serious trail bike.

The frame features neat external routing that tucks the cables neatly under the top tube. A 12x148mm bolt-thru rear axle bolsters up the back end, keeping everything steady through the rough stuff.
