Switch 6 - spec - Sweat the details

The Switch 6 is an MX wheeled Mountain bike, 160mm travel front and rear. It uses a 205x65 trunnion shock alongside revised upper & lower shock mounts, which now allows for a bearing eyelet to be used. This has been done to achieve a lower break away force, providing incredible sensitivity to the initial part of the shock's stroke, while maintaining our signature feel.

The layout of the New Switch 6 frame has also seen major revisions, the inclusion of Orange's S.A.F.E (Stores Accessories Food & Equipment) should mean you don't have to strap so much to the outside of your bike, you can keep it hidden and readily available. More room has been created to fit a larger water bottle inside the front triangle to keep you hydrated on those longer days in the saddle. We've added our new tapered head tube to improve stiffness and increase strength and we've also revised our sizing with shorter seat tube lengths to allow for longer dropper posts.

Technology developed on our most recent bikes also appears on the Switch 6, it has an asymmetrical swingarm, this allowed us to increase the bike's vertical stiffness whilst tuning its lateral compliance, producing a bike with a direct feel under power but still maintaining buckets of grip.
