    Fast, confidence-inspiring and highly capable. Falco bridges the gap between everyday fun and serious off-road performance; whether you're getting into mountain biking for the first time, upgrading from an entry-level model, or a seasoned rider branching out from gravel to more technical trails. A stable yet responsive feel on descents, thanks to neutral trail bike geometry and 29" wheels to carry speed through the rough stuff, means that anyone, regardless of skill level, can jump on and enjoy the way it rides.

    “Falco was built to be a rider’s trail love. It’s playful, confident, and capable enough to keep up as you grow. It’s a true trail bike for people who take their fun seriously, and want a ride that keeps up. It doesn’t shout — it just works, ride after ride.” - Neil Sutton, Sonder Designer



    120mm travel up front makes it a versatile all-round trail bike, in its element lapping trail centres at pace or taking on classic Peak rides on natural trails. The kind of bike you can grow with, and fall in love with - as you're pedalling up and flying back down.

    Custom built to match your ride style, choose lightweight components for outright speed or fit chunky tyres for playful fun and tougher trail duties - with clearance for up to 2.4". Internal cable routing in the front triangle keeps things neat, complete with routing for a dropper seatpost for full confidence on the downhill. Our recommended builds offer a range of spec levels with a focus on performance where you need it most. Future-proof suspension, brake and drivetrain options far beyond what you'll find on most entry level bikes set you up for maximum fun on the trails without breaking the bank.

    With a BSA threaded bottom bracket, boost axle spacing and a UDH hanger we've made it simple for you to maintain as a home mechanic, with plenty of scope to change or upgrade your setup later as you improve your skills and dial in your preferences. The UDH hanger also lets you choose to run SRAM's latest groupsets with direct mount derailleurs.

    Why SRAM Eagle 70?

    First, we delivered the dream of the perfect mountain bike shift. Now we’re delivering the dream of ultimate performance for the mechanical mountain bike transmission too.

    This is Eagle Mechanical Transmission.

    The world’s first mechanical groupsets to use a Full Mount interface instead of a derailleur hanger. The first to let you shift anywhere, under absolute power, without compromising or compensating. It’s the world’s
    first mechanical system with incredibly easy “prepare, hang, tighten” installation, no adjustment screws needed. Rebuildable. Reliable. Affordable. Mechanical Transmission is the dream, delivered.

    Hangerless Interface and Full Mount give the Eagle Transmission derailleur a remarkably strong attachment, clamping around both sides of the frame itself and eliminating the need for a hanger. This super strong connection eliminates variance and improper adjustment across frame designs. It also eliminates hanger failures and allows the derailleur to rotate backward in the case of an impact.

    Features

    Ultra-capable trail ready geometry

    Falco's sweet-spot geometry is tuned for UK trail centres. A 66° head angle coupled with short, but not too short, chain stays and a long, but not too long reach gives the perfect balance between agility and stability.

    Ride your way

    Carefully considered frame features let you build yours to match your ride style; choose lightweight components for XC-style speed or set up with chunky tyres for tougher trail duties with clearance up to 29 x 2.4in.

    Internal cable routing

    Internal routing for brake, gear and dropper cables in the front triangle makes for a clean profile.

    Modern, future-proof frame

    Ultra versatile and future-proof with boost axle spacing, a UDH hanger, dropper routing and space for a bottle. Plus, the BSA threaded bottom bracket makes maintenance easy for the home mechanic.

    Universal Derailleur Hanger

    Keeping up with industry standards, Falco uses a UDH mech hanger. They're widely available so you can get rolling again sooner after any mid-ride mishaps! The UDH frame fitting also gives you the option of running SRAM's latest groupsets with direct-mount derailleurs.

    Geometry and Sizing

     

    Sizing

    It is important to get the right size bike, if the bike fits it will be faster, more comfortable, and easier to handle. You can also take into consideration the standover height to ensure you pick a bike that will be a good fit. If you measure your inside leg and ensure there is a minimum of an inch from the toptube to your crotch this will give you enough seatpost adjustment to find your optimum saddle height.
