The latest Crankbrothers Highline 11 bum bling uses a carbon stanchion (or ‘quill’), a carbon head and oh-so-desirable titanium bolts all over the place.
Available in 30.9 and 31.6mm diameters, and in 60mm / 100mm / 125mm / 150mm / 170mm drops.
Claimed weights range from 398g (60/30.9mm) to 509g (31.6/170mm).
Impressive 4-year warranty.
SRP €399 (no UK pricing as yet – hang on!)
We’ve got one of these on test at the mo. I’ve been riding a Highline 11 (31.6/170mm) since mid February. A full review will be published eventually.
Spoiler: it works really well so far.
