Anaheim, CA - The CHUMBA XCL now weighs 6.8lbs. with a Fox RP23, and only 6.2 lbs. without a shock. The liberal use of butted tubing allows for the frame to lose weight, putting it within a half pound of most of our competitors, but still retaining industry-leading lateral rigidity and strength. Also, CHUMBA is now offering a high-end light weight build kit, complete with XTR wheels, brakes, and drivetrain, while using a Fox Talas RLC for its front suspension. This light weight build kit should keep the bike around 26-28lbs.

A lot of consumers might misperceive the XCL as a “heavy” bike, but in actuality, the chassis is in the same weight class as our competitors, and the bike can be built up competitively light. Also, be on the lookout for a new titanium light weight hardware kit. For more information, please contact our sales team at 800-706-0760.

CHUMBA is supported by the best companies in the industry, including Shimano, Fox, Chris King, Hope, SRAM, and Industry Nine.
