LTD Warden
Get your hands on an Anodized Purple Warden as part of our limited edition Fall release.
Fully equipped with SRAM GX Eagle Transmission and FOX suspension.
The NEW Knolly Warden was designed for tech Enduro and freeride lines. It returns as a dedicated MX model featuring 170mm of travel, a fresh new look & an S1/XS size option because we know short queens/kings want a big travel mountain bike, too. This freeride model serves as your one-bike quiver for all-mountain post-work laps or big MTB bike park days.
Note for our Anodized Finished Frames: due to the combination of the anodizing and welding process of our alloy frames, there may be some slight color variation around the weld lines and random locations throughout the frame's surface.
Complete bikes ship unassembled & require a full build. Spec is subject to change without notice. If you have any questions, contact us at info@knollybikes.com.
