The zero 290 is the minimalist offering from Crossworx to the fanbase. And as a hardtail with a lot of suspension travel, this fanbase should not be so small. The flat 64 degree head tube angle of the All Mountain von Crossworx oozes self-assurance, especially in challenging terrain. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. In the price range of under 4500 Euro, there are bikes that climb better than the Crossworx zero 290. All in all, in the on demanding single tracks category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry. With 5 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
