Highlights Spectral CF 8 CLLCTV

This is All-Ways Trail

Complete control: K.I.S.

Feel more stable on high-speed courses. Find more predictability and grip when it's loose. Hold your line through rough and off-camber sections. Keep It Stable is a steering stabiliser that actively centres your steering with an ingenious spring mechanism connecting your top tube and steerer and comes as standard on all CF models.

Your K.I.S. setup

Every bike with K.I.S. has an adjustable system strength to match your trails and style. This 'set and forget' tech is maintenance-free, protected from damage, and has a lifetime warranty. Don’t fancy K.I.S.? Each bike comes with an easy to install blanking plate that covers the adjuster slot.

Do-it-all DNA

Set it up how you want, take it where you want, and ride it how you want. This next-gen trail bike stacks new features on top of tried and tested tech to deliver boundary-breaking capability. If you want a playful trail toy, an awesome adventurer, or just need one bike for everything, this is the bike you’ll find yourself always reaching for.

Shaped to shred

The Spectral is the bike we've made for riding our local loops in Koblenz. Quick on the climbs, playful and capable ripping down the descents, tough and reliable enough to take a beating: we designed the Spectral to handle just about anything.

Key features

Next generation carbon chassis

The most complete, capable trail bike we've ever made. Our latest Spectral CF carbon frame is engineered around a 150mm fork and 140mm rear travel for that perfect all rounder setup. The all-new design and one-piece rocker link deliver 'just right' levels of stiffness and class-leading performance whether tackling alpine epics or laps of your local trails.

Internal downtube storage

Pack everything you might need in the spacious downtube storage. The storage lid’s knee-lever mechanism creates benchmark clamping security, with a fiddle-free, lightweight action that even the coldest, muddiest hands can operate.

Flip chip to flip wheelsize

Ride your Spectral your way. Pick your favourite wheelsize and know you can swap your wheels out to run full 29er or mullet. The chainstay flip chip lets you easily swap wheelsizes whenever you want so no more being locked into one wheelsize.

Trail taming kinematics

Our engineers have maximised performance from this 140mm setup. An updated leverage curve and reduced pedal kick back deliver smoother more sensitive suspension performance boosting traction and composure on the trail without losing any of the Spectral's trademark support and 'pop'.

Maintenance made easy

Make repairs a cinch when the time comes with fully guided internal routing and tubing connecting the cable ports at the headtube with those in the seat stay. Our replaceable thread inserts, double-sealed bearings, and proprietary grease fill deliver industry-leading durability.

Adjustable Geometry

A 64° head tube angle, 76.5° seat tube angle, roomy reach and tight chainstays balance playfulness and performance for that modern trail bike feel. For riders after extra pedal clearance and slow speed poise, a flip chip steepens the angles by 0.5° and raises the BB by 8mm.
