An energetic design with vibrant graphics, the Escalate is an Amazon exclusive; 17-inch frame is suggested for minimum inseam of 29 inches; 15 inch frame is also available; this bike arrives 90% assembled with all tools needed for fast, easy assembly
The lightweight aluminum hardtail frame is backed by our limited 10-year frame warranty (see owner's manual for details); aluminum (much lighter than steel) provides more rolling momentum so it's easier to pedal for speed and acceleration

Front suspension delivers the right response for whatever terrain you ride; the front-load stem with forged crown provides extra strength for riding comfort; knobby 26" x 2.10" ATB tires grip dirt and gravel paths with ease, in wet or dry conditions
Alloy linear pull brakes together with machined alloy wheel rims provide smooth, stopping power; slight-rise handlebar enables upright riding to minimize back and shoulder strain; ATB-type resin pedals and Krayton grips remain comfortable and responsive
