For marathon racing, nothing beats a lightweight hardtail. No cross-country hardtail comes close to our new Phenix C:68X. Sleek, slim, and unbelievably light. With an adjustable head tube angle for maximum versatility and a handlebar with an integrated stem for maximum efficiency. If you’re looking for ultimate speed, this race-ready hardtail is the tool you need.
The frame of the Phenix C:68X SLT proves that it's always worth looking for ways to make things better. By using our premium C:68X carbon, our engineers have created a frame that weighs less than 900 grams yet excels in both strength and comfort. When selecting the components, our product managers had carte blanche. So, the Phenix C:68X SLT is equipped with only the best of the best. Like Sram's extremely precise XX SL Eagle Transmission drivetrain. Newmen's carbon Phase 30 wheels are in the same league: thanks to the use of carbon spokes, they weigh just 1,150 grams per set, yet have a maximum system weight of a remarkable 130 kg. This ensures super-fast acceleration without having to worry about wheel failure. The Fox 32 SC Float Factory SL fork is another highlight; it doesn't get lighter than this fork. The same goes for the Magura MT8 SL disc brakes. These carbon brakes, with a 180 mm brake disc at the front, still offer more than enough stopping power.
With the frame of the Phenix C:68X SLX, our engineers have raised the bar once again. How? To begin with, we've created a frame made from our premium C:68X carbon that weighs less than 900 grams, while still excelling in strength and comfort. Then there's the assembly of this carbon machine. Anyone who wants to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible needs components that won't let you down. That's why we've equipped it with Sram's superior electronic XO Eagle Transmission drivetrain. A lightweight RockShox SID SL fork and Newmen's carbon Advanced SL X.A.30 wheels, paired with lightning-fast 2.25 inch race tires from Schwalbe, ensure groundbreaking acceleration and control. The handlebar with integrated stem is both lightweight and comfortable. And thanks to the powerful Magura MT8 brakes, you can brake later, resulting in less time lost.
Blink, and you'll miss it – because the Phenix C:68X SLX is designed to be fast. There's a hint in the E*13 Helix Race carbon crank, which is power meter-ready for optimised training and race course performance. The theme continues with a lightweight Newmen Phase 30 wheelset, shod with fast-rolling Schwalbe Racing Ray and Racing Ralph 2.35in tyres and held in check by Shimano's range-topping XTR hydraulic disc brakes, so you can brake harder and later. A smooth, light and easily configurable Fox 32 Float Factory SC fork with remote. And – the icing on the proverbial cake – Shimano's electronic XTR Di2 1x12 gears, putting a huge range of ratios at your fingertips so you can reel in and pass the competition.Frame descriptionWe know a thing or two about making fast cross-country race frames, but the Phenix C:68X moves the bar even higher. How? For starters, we used our premium C:68X carbon for the ultimate in low weight, high strength and ride comfort. We redesigned the seat tube junction to incorporate an integrated seat clamp. It's a small touch, but – along with Internal Cable Routing – it complements the frame's clean aesthetic and elegant, organic lines. And there's an adjustable angle headset, so you can tweak your bike's handling to suit your own taste.
