GT Launches New Force Carbon

Launching today, GT has released details of their all-new GT Force Carbon. A 170mm enduro bike aimed at racers and park shredders alike. The changes include the use of their LTS suspension paired with the idler. This system has been used on the Fury DH bikes for the last few years.

The new 29″ GT Force has had geometry tweaks as well as frame adjustments. The bike now has a lower standover and taller head tube. It also has a longer rear end. The range is available in S to XL and in four colours. Starting at ยฃ3600, the top-end model costs ยฃ5400. The bike is compatible with both air and coil shocks and can also be adjusted with a flip-chip.

Not too good about writing about myself, but not so bad at writing about other things. There was a time that I hated bikes, but then they became my life. Wouldn't be the person I am if I hadn't been on this journey. Here's to bikes, drinking tea and everything that comes with life on two wheels. I'm Lauren, I like bikes and writing about them. Always trying my best and up for adventures.
