Raven 8.8 Hardtail Mountain Bike 2023
The latest iteration of the RAVEN 8.8 mountain bike boasts a lightweight carbon frame that strikes the perfect balance between rigidity and comfort. Its innovative internal compartment solution (I.C.S.) cleverly integrated into the downtube provides convenient storage space for your essential tools.
With a shortened stem and an elongated top tube, this high-performance hardtail mountain bike, equipped with 120 mm of travel, delivers enhanced steering responsiveness and improved stability. Thanks to its wide 2.4" tires, the RAVEN 8.8 not only excels in downhill adventures but also ensures a remarkably comfortable ride. However, its appeal extends beyond that: the RAVEN 8.8 guarantees an enjoyable and swift journey to the trail, providing all-around fun and exhilaration.
Featuring a dropper post (125 mm for S & M sizes, 150 mm for L size, and 170 mm for XL size), the new RAVEN 8.8 enables you to effortlessly adjust your seat height for seamless descents. Moreover, by simply adjusting the headset cups, you can easily modify the head angle of the RAVEN 8.8, ranging from 66.5° to 67.5°. Opting for a steeper angle grants a more agile riding experience, while a slacker position enhances stability, particularly during downhill segments.
