LITE290
29’’ Wheels | 130 mm travel
You are looking for an agile and playful trail bike?
Our LITE 290 is the solution. Our short-travel trail rocket LITE with 130 mm of travel is the perfect bike for your local trails and all-day exploring adventures. It definitely will tame every technical mountain and flowtrail on your next bikeride!
 
130 mm progressive travel
Our short-travel trail bike LITE is the smaller brother of our DASH and carries it’s genes through and through. The LITE provides 130 mm of progressive travel at the rear and is thus the perfect bike for your local trails and all-day exploring adventures.
78° pure power development
Trail bikes have become conservative all-rounders. From relaxed rides, over flowing trails to rough downhills, a trail bike has to do it all.
The steep seat angle of the Dash, combined with an active platform and the playful character of the Zero is our formula for a lot of fun on your hometrails.
The seat angle of 78deg and 5mm more BB drop are suited for a longer trail time in the saddle.
Optimized tubes and well balanced geometry
With its low center of gravity, the LITE 290 offers plenty of stability.
At the same time we’ve optimized the tubes to shave off some additional weight. While the frame size M has no seattube gusset, the sizes L and XL just got a smaller one to generate more room for creative trail maneuvers.
Aluminum at its best
Well tried and tested features combined with new DNA. As successfully tested on our DASH-Frames
we only use double-sealed bearings that are adequately dimensioned. Just to create a fun bike without worrying to much about any maintenance. In addition, an internal cable routing provides a clean and tidy look.
Redesigned Link
We’ve completely redesigned the Link of our LITE Trailbike to match the demands of a potent trail bike. You now have a more active position on the bike and it the shock slightly stands higher in the shock travel. And as another feature, our already efficient rear end is even more drive-neutral. This highlights the sportier character of the Lite even better. The shock length is 210x50mm in metric sized and optimized for the use of air shocks.

RADIANT RAW: take note, this really is raw. It is not a brushed or polished or clear coated raw. It is as the frame is after heat treatment and final BB and head tube facing. it will show all the imperfections of raw tubing and different shades of the raw aluminium material. This is really for those that love that RAW and industrial look. But also ideal if you want to brush or polish it your self.

Note on stock and delivery times:
For any frame not in stock take note for delivery times: Crossworx lay out their production plan on the last day of the month for all ordered frames in that month and produce the ordered frames in the following month so frames can be ready at the end of that month for shipping. Shipping from Germany is approx 4 weeks. So if we order a frame at end of the month, expect turn around time to be just over 8 weeks.  Any frame not in stock: 8 - 12 weeks (sometimes shorter, contact us!)
