I have the 2019 Honzo, excellent bike. I have thousands of miles on it by now, i use it to stay in shape riding around our many trails here. We have mostly very smooth trails here, that's why i chose a hardtail. Recommended if you're looking for a hardtail.

I have 2017 AL/DL It's so capable and versatile - I've ridden it at lift-access DH and bikepacking. Highly recommended

Thanks for this. I have a 2020 Honzo and have ridden it a lot. I did have to replace the cassette (then an SRAM NX-Eagle 11-50) in under a year as I spent too much time on the top cog, but other than that it's been great.

Depending where you are in the world the uk shipments all come out of Germany and we have been seeing delays up to 2 months, it’s so hard to predict if the brand is accurately guessing or just throwing a dart at the calendar.

Hello, what's the biggest ring you can fit on the front?
@thefrothybikeco2 жыл бұрын
hard to say, we have fitted a 48t on in the past. the limiting factor is the chain stay flaring out, you can over come this with a wider bottom bracket but the chain line is then off set. so im going to say 48-50 tops you will need a longer chain to suit but the rear mech wont be affected by the larger ring provided the chain is the correct length. hope this helps

I just put 2.5s on my 2019 Honzo. Looks like it's about the maximum. Maybe a 2.6 will fit but the clearance will be microscopic.
