Our interpretation of cross-country
-
Light carbon frame with I.C.S. integration
The light carbon frame makes the new RAVEN 8.9 as stiff as necessary and as comfortable as possible. A smart internal compartment solution (I.C.S.) in your downtube offers space for your essential tools.
-
Fun off and on the trails
A shorter stem and longer top tube give this fast hardtail mountain bike with 120 mm travel a more direct steering response with increased stability. With its wide 2.4" tyres, the RAVEN 8.9 is not only fun downhill, but also very comfortable. But not just that: The RAVEN 8.9 offers all-around fun riding making even the way to the trail a great riding experience.

Head angle adjustment and trail-ready at the push of a button
The new RAVEN 8.9 comes with a dropper post (S & M = 125 mm, L = 150 mm, XL = 170 mm travel) so you are ready for the descents at the push of a button. By turning the headset cups, you can easily change the head angle of your RAVEN 8.9 from 66.5° to 67.5°. A steeper angle provides a more agile setting. The slacker position is more stable and downhill-oriented.
