Durango’s lead the way when it comes to trail worthy lightweights. And while last year’s overhauled chassis won accolades, we knew we could do better. And we did, with an all-new frame using a shaped and gusseted down tube and smarter dropouts that enhance rear-end stiffness for more cornering precision and better handling overall.
And that was just for starters. The Durango 1.0’s 100 mm-travel fork provides you with lockout for optimal pedaling efficiency, a 24-speed Shimano drivetrain with a Deore rear derailleur upgrade and a pair of stop-in-any-conditions Tektro Io-X disc brakes.
Step up to the Durango 2.0 and you get a magnesium-legged, lockout-equipped RST Omega fork, 27-speed Shimano Deore drivetrain and dual-piston hydraulic disc brakes, and WTB Speed Disc double-wall, eyeleted hoops.
Strive for the 3.0 and you’ll see a premium Marzocchi MZ Race fork with 100mm of coil-sprung/hydraulic damped travel (with lockout!), and Shimano’s new Deore XT Shadow rear derailleur which sits safely under the chainstay so you’ll be able to rack up the miles without a lot of breakdown time.
It’s always a good day to hit the trail. Do it on a Durango, and make it great.
