Expirience with the Simplon CIREX, XT-12

Ludwig Döhl The Cirex is a classic race fully which has been trimmed for propulsion. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Cirex. For trail lovers, one point dominates: the Simplon Fully scores in the decent with an extremely good geometry, a high-quality suspension and grippy tires. Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Simplon Fully sizing runs big.
