What is the Downshift?
A bike for going really fast, over long distances, while riding the most technical downhills along the way. XC, brought bang up to date with modern geometry.
Local mission Wednesday, XC Sunday, then go bike packing the week after. All on the same bike.
Full internal cable routing keeps weld points to a minimum, same with the no-yoke.
Not just somewhere to route the cables, it’s stronger, lighter, and more comfortable.
