Moots MX Divide (29”) and Divide (26”)

The Moots MX Divide and Divide full-suspension, titanium, cross-country race and recreational mountain bikes are the latest in a long lineage from the Steamboat Springs manufacture. Designed and built from the ground up to be light, stiff, and responsive, both feature Moots’ new Fusion Link Suspension System.

“The new Moots Divide full suspension mountain bikes are the result of more than two years of research and design efforts,” said Rob Mitchell, President of Moots. “We co-developed the Fusion Link Suspension System with the Sotto Group specifically to balance overall stiffness and ride quality" "We’re excited to move titanium full suspension forward.”

The new Moots models offer a 3.9-inch-travel fork combined with the Fox RP23 Kashima shock to battle trail obstacles while the aluminum chain stays provide stiffness, larger tire compatibility and multiple chainring options.

Features:
Fusion Swing Link: Formed out of carbon fiber to be light, stiff and clean, this provides the connection between seat stays, frame and shock.
7/8” titanium seat stays: Ovalized and shaped for strength, stiffness and clearance with sculpted bearing points on each end.
Fox RP23 Kashima Shock: Fox’s top of the line rear shock provides minimal friction during shock compression and rebound.
Lower pivot design and placement: The pivot is located low on the seat post, specifically placed for 26” and 29” sized wheels respectively, works in conjunction with the Fusion Swing Link and Fox RP23 shock for a plush ride. Oversized bearings at pivot locations provide durability and require less maintenance.

The MX Divide and Divide will be available spring 2012. MX Divide (29”) sizing: 16”, 17”, 18”, 19”, 20”, 22” and custom. MX Divide frame weight: 5.75 lb. (19”). Divide (26”) sizing: 14”, 15”, 16”, 17”, 18”, 20” and custom.

Moots bikes feature a lifetime warranty. Custom options include: Shimano Di2 routing, English threaded BB shell, 2nd water bottle boss, and custom geometry.
