Description

Cross-country is evolving beyond fast-and-flowy to fast-and-everything—technical terrain all-day epics and stage races. The new Pique Advanced 29 is …ready for it. Re-engineered for greater efficiency and control this XC queen was built to slay switchbacks rock gardens and yesterday’s PRs. Key Performance Factors EFFICIENCY IS SPEED Now 297g lighter* the Advanced-grade composite frameset also features greater stiffness for efficient power transfer a massive advantage on climbs and at speed. New FlexPoint Pro suspension minimises weight by minimising parts. And a shorter chainstay offers greater agility for manoeuvring switchbacks and snappy acceleration for seizing every overtake opportunity. *Compared to previous generation CONTROL IS POWER With its patented linkage-driven single-pivot design the new FlexPoint Pro suspension delivers 115mm of smooth active rear-wheel travel so you can maximise power and traction over ever-changing and uber-challenging terrain. Combined with a slacker head tube angle and 120mm of front suspension this setup ensures you’re equipped to dominate technical descents. STABILITY IS MASTERY Roll over just about anything on 29-inch wheels designed for stability and efficiency. Updated geometry provides a longer reach putting you in a lower and more aggressive body position. A steeper seat tube angle increases pedalling efficiency on even the steepest climbs. And the modified cockpit includes a 35mm composite handlebar and alloy stem for steering precision. Advanced Composite Technology Liv’s High-Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this frameset in our own composite factory. Using state-of-the-art materials and manufacturing techniques Liv’s Advanced-Grade Composite frames are designed to offer light weight and stiffness with optimal compliance. Advanced Forged Composite Technology A state-of-the-art high-pressure moulding process is used to produce complex-shaped carbon fibre components that are lighter stiffer and stronger than similar aluminium components. OverDrive Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance this fork steerer tube technology uses oversized headset bearings 1 1/4” lower and 1 1/8” upper for road 1 1/2” lower and 1 1/8” upper for mountain and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness. Tubeless System Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing technology this tubeless ready composite WheelSystem delivers superior efficiency pinpoint control and comfort. FlexPoint Suspension Technology A proven “single-pivot” design that uses the flexing action of the chainstay/seatstay junction to produce a lightweight and durable suspension system with 4.7 inches/120mm of rear travel.

Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight but in reality weight can vary based on size finish hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
