Is it a hardtail mountain bike that awakens the desire to travel the world, or an off-road touring bike that makes you hit the single trails? The Karate Monkey is both, and that’s exactly what makes it so appealing.
If you’re looking for an agile hardtail mountain bike, the Karate Monkey is just as right for you as if you need a touring bike for off-road terrain.
Modern MTB features such as thru axles and a 44mm head tube meet a moderate head tube angle and relatively short wheelbase. It has eyelets for all kinds of luggage racks, and you can also install a Rohloff gear hub on the Karate Monkey.
