Expirience with the Simplon RAZORBLADE 29 IV SL, SHIMANO XTR 12

Ludwig Döhl The RAZORBLADE 29 IV SL is among the lightest hardtails on the market, thanks to its ultra-lightweight frame. The handling of this bike is balanced. So its pretty intuitive to control on singletrails. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Simplon Hardtail. A good argument for the Racebike von Simplon: Such a successful geometry is usually only available if you have deep pockets.
