The Rustler Carbon GX Eagle is designed to be the ultimate trail bike for lovers of mountain riding. Appropriately nimble, the 27.5-wheeled bike rewards a skilled rider with opportunities to boost, roost, and otherwise get their shred on.

The 12-speed GX Eagle drivetrain provides an incredible 10 to 50 tooth gear range with consistent shifting performance and trusted chain retention. 130mm of incredibly supple Split Pivot® rear travel is managed via the proven damping of the RockShox Deluxe RT3 shock.

Up front, the gold standard of trail-bike forks, the RockShox Pike RC 150, provides excellent small bump absorption with a wonderfully progressive mid-stroke. Prepare to be fully stoked.
