Colour: Metallic Grey
Description

The Rhythm Expert is custom built to order at our West Sussex HQ. It is currently sold out. We will have more available from May 22nd.

The Rhythm Expert is the newest addition to our complete bike range. Built with everything you need for riding trails, dirt jumps, skateparks and pump tracks – complete with Long Rhythm Frame, X-Fusion Slant HLR Roughcut forks, full DMR cockpit and Colt wheels, this bike comes ready to roll.

The Rhythm frame at the heart of this bike is made from 6061 T6 aluminium alloy. The lightness and stiffness of this frame material make it ideal for multiple riding disciplines and styles.

Frame details include a tapered headtube, machined chainstay yoke and interchangeable, integrated sliding dropouts – these dropouts make adjusting chain tension a breeze. Dropouts are also interchangeable with our Rhythm derailleur-compatible dropouts if you want to change your setup to run gears.

The X-Fusion Slant HLR Roughcut Fork is fitted as standard. Thanks to the air spring, this 100mm travel fork is strong, lightweight, and super adjustable. Tool-free rebound and compression damping adjustment make it easy to dial in your ride.

The rest of the components are carefully selected with performance and strength in mind. Highlights include a DMR cockpit featuring Odub signature handlebars, Defy35 stem, finished with DMR Sect grips – the preferred choice for many of our team riders.

We’ve built a set of our new DMR Colt wheels into every Expert bike – tougher, lighter rims, laced onto sealed bearing DMR hubs, with a 13T driver and a Shimano chain. We've also specced our own, proven DMR Moto DJ Tyres and Tektro Hydraulic brakes front and rear.

Ready to hit the trails? Look no further.

“A great hardtail for the teenager in your household – or the teenager at heart. Not the stay in bed all day type of teenager though – the fun-loving thrill-seeking type of teenager who eyes up a jump spot and thinks ‘yes!’, not ‘where’s the nearest A&E?’!”
