The 2008 6POINT series models are designed for situations where a typical trail or marathon bike is not enough, but where a freeride bike is overkill. The trails will require climbing but also have technical sections that may include jumps, stunts, and steep chutes or descents. This aspect of riding is categorized as All Mountain - the 6 POINT is aimed at the more aggressive side of the all mountain category, combining some features of heavier duty Freeride bikes with a lighter weight frame and air spring suspension. Aggressive all mountain bikes feature durable - but light weight - frames, large diameter disc brake rotors, dual front chain rings, and 6.3 inches of suspension.

 

If you’re going to go for a Sunday ride with your buddies and maybe hit some jumps in the front yard – the 6POINT series is not for you. The 2008 6POINT bikes are made for people who go hard all the time, and demand the same from their bike.

 

With incredible efficiency and practically endless traction, the dw-link 6POINT will push you to conquer the most rock-strewn and technical climbs in existence, then let you open it up on tight and technical trails on the way down. The lightweight 7.3 lb frame is crafted using Iron Horse’s  6069-t6 OPT tubing and F7 links to provide a stiff, strong, and responsive ride. The 6POINT also features a 150x12mm rear wheel spacing and 83mm BB shell for maximum tire clearance, solid wheel builds, and an aggressive riding stance. Coupled with a 160mm travel forks, the 160mm (6.3 inch) of efficient and compliant dw-link rear wheel travel make the 6POINT the total Deep Woods Package.

 

The 6 point 4 combines the famous Iron Horse DW 6POINT frame with top end components: a Fox DHX 3.0 Rear Shock, Marzocchi 55R (185mm) front shock, Shimano Saint Front Derailleur, and SRAM X7 Rear Derailleur.

Now when you look at that 40 degree pitch boulder garden you can, “I might make it.”
