When you say that you ride trail, we know that you're really riding trail. And after one ride on the all-new Rhyme FSR Expert Carbon 6Fattie, you'll never be doing it the same again. It's a bold statement to make, but the increase in traction, control, and floatation that our 6Fattie Wheel System provides is nothing short of revolutionary. And then, of course, there's the rest of the bike. It features our FACT 9m carbon fiber for the bulk of the construction in order to provide an ultra-lightweight, strong, and stiff frame. The carbon molding process also allowed us to revolutionize how you carry your trail essentials with the all-new SWAT Door found at the down tube. This compartment will fit a tube, a tool, and pump without rattling or compromising the structural integrity of the frame. And when you factor in a women's-specific build spec that mixes some of SRAM and Shimano's best performing components, a pressure-relieving Body Geometry Myth saddle, and our control-boosting 6Fattie Trail Geometry, you have a bike that will have you never looking back—unless it's to see your buddies eating your dust.
  • The FACT 9m carbon fiber Trail Chassis with a Rhyme FSR 6Fattie M5 alloy rear end with 148mm spacing blends stiffness with light weight to reach the pinnacle of efficiency, while fully enclosed cable routing and an integrated SWAT Door create exceptional handling and zero-hassle storage. The frame also features our Trail 6Fattie Geometry that adds to confidence, fit, and performance.
  • Connected with our FSR 6-Pack Linkage, 135mm of Active and Independent FSR rear suspension is provided by a custom FOX FLOAT Factory DPS rear shock that's received our own Women's Rx Trail Tune, providing a lighter tune for female riders who love to get rowdy.
  • Every component and touchpoint of the bike, from the handlebars to saddle to the crankarm length, is tailored for both women and rider size.
  • 29mm-wide Roval Traverse wheels are hand-built to provide the perfect tension and a longer lifespan, while an ultra-wide alloy design allows for higher tire volumes that decrease deflection in order to provide more stability and increased traction.

Perfect fit for most women

I use this bike year round in New England. There was a lot of ice this year so I got studded tires and I had no problems. it handles roots and rocks easily. Couldn't be happier!
