Ragley Big Wig 29" Steel Hardtail MTB Frame 2017

To bring the frame right up to date they added a whole host of new features such as a Boost 148mm rear hub spacing, better tyre clearance, better stand-over and internal dropper seatpost compatibility.

Ragley's updated trail geometry uses a long front centre, short 435mm chainstays, slammed BB and a slack head angle of 65?Static (66.5? Sagged at 25%) for improved handling and manoeuvrability.

When coupled with a 130mm travel fork and a short stem, the result is a long, low, slack and planted feeling bike with excellent grip, impeccable trail handling and stability that inspires confidence at high speed and over steep/technical terrain. 27.5"+ Compatibility means the Bigwig is more versatile than ever! The tyre clearance from the revised 3-finger bridge is so good that the frame is 27.5"+ compatible. Now you can now fit 27.5"+ wheels with wide 44mm rims and massive 3" tyres allowing you to adapt your Bigwig to suit the conditions you want to ride.

The 2017 Ragley Bigwig 29" Hardtail is a Trail/All Mountain/Enduro Race friendly machine for those who demand a versatile, go anywhere and ride everything kind of bike that inspires confidence in every situation.

At home on any terrain, from tearing up your local singletrack, to back country adventures in the middle of nowhere, smashing out runs in the Alps or racing Enduro; it is the weapon of choice for those who want to ride everything!
