$3,599.00 CAD Sale Save

The NEW Knolly Chilcotin is longer, faster and more aggressive. With a completely updated geometry, kinematics and frame design, the Chilcotin was created to charge down rugged technical terrain as the Enduro bike in the new Knolly lineup.

Consumers asked and Knolly answered: all new Knolly frames include the standout details like the straight top tube design, Enduro bearings on all pivots, and a one-piece monolink driving the shock. With the new Chilcotin, there are two suspension options (170/170 & 160/155) and an expanded size offering of small through x-large frames. 

Looking for LESS travel? Try the Chilcotin 155.

*Please note - Standard GX kits are currently shipping with Fox 38 Performance Elite fork and Factory X2 shock*
