WELCOME TO BACK TO THE FUTURE
1991
.
20 years ago Mountain Cycle launched the San Andreas, a bike that
changed and influenced mountain bike design for the following two
decades.
It’s certainly a bike with big shoes to fill.
2011.
We’ve taken the best of our past 20 years – all the elements
Mountain
Cycle refined and developed to make our bikes ‘special’ – and applied
them to a new generation of Mountain Cycle platforms.
Names like San Andreas, Zen and Shockwave have all returned – we’ve
used the essence of our classic bikes and applied their key elements to a
new world.
The new Mountain Cycle might look different, but it may also appear
strangely familiar.

OUR SUSPENSION
We like to think that Mountain Cycle is the ‘thinking man’s bike’.
We’re not into the latest fad or ‘thing’, preferring to fine-tune and
finesse systems we have been developing and evolving for the past
two decades.
From day one, the backbone of Mountain Cycle has been the single
pivot suspension system. It is simple, clean, strong and when tuned
well, flawless. To us it’s the true mountain bike suspension system,
that has you riding more and maintaining less.
Our ‘MC Dex’ Single Pivot is our new school old school.
MC Dex encapsulates key aspects of the single pivot design –
strength and simplicity – and uses them to help create Mountain
Cycle’s single pivot approach to stiffness and performance.
We’ve merged the bottom bracket, pivot and rocker into a single,
massive CNC piece – what we call ‘MC Dex’. This ensures that the
most vital area of our suspension bikes are not only ridiculously stiff
and strong, but also achieve perfect alignment of all datums - our
bikes are perfectly aligned and stay that way.
Into this, we anchor Sotto Design & Engineering’s unique patent
pending ‘Turntable’ tuned single pivot system.
...& THINGS THAT JUST MADE SENSE
‘Turntable’ tunes the shock rate to work in perfect harmony with
the pivot location with the short, eccentric link, providing unmatched
stiffness in a single pivot platform.
Standards you’ll find are the PF30 bottom bracket, Syntace X12 rear
axles (Zen II and San Andres 2.0) and Cane Creek’s Angleset in every
bike, allowing for the rider to tune our bikes to fit their environment.
20 years later we have evolved, not replaced, because we feel that
just because something is new, does not mean it’s better.
