ver wanted a bike bold and ballsy enough to do it all? From baby smooth singletrack to the rocks, roots and rhythm of the backcountry? New for 2011, we’ve morphed our popular Dawg with our lightweight long travel One20 to come up with a trail creature that can run through an incredibly diverse field of trail conditions. Featuring 130mm of front and rear travel, a balanced geometry and frame design that’s uncomplicated, light (30-pounds) and beautiful, the Tanuki comes in seven different sizes to ensure a perfect fit. Oh yeah, a Tanuki is a mythical Japanese creature with giant nuts.
