Silent, except for the whir of your hub and the beating of your heart: the experience on the hard-charging Yeti Cycles ARC T2 Complete Mountain Bike may be a bit different than you're used to with full suspension. A launchback to the days where skill and precision were everything, this bike is full of soul (and tech). Built from the highest quality carbon fiber available, it's as stiff and poppy as the day is long, rewarding riders who have the juice to devote that extra concentration that a hardtail requires. With a high end Fox fork and SRAM's excellent X01 drivetrain, this bike is ready to rip. Are you?
TURQ Series Carbon Frame – TURQ Series bikes are made with the highest quality carbon fiber available and offer the perfect balance of stiffness and compliance. The result is a bike that feels smooth, solid and aggressive. Every bike is tested by the best racers in the world, including EWS World Champion Richie Rude, an in-house testing team and ambassadors around the world.
Integrated Axle and Hanger – The integrated axle and derailleur hanger system is built for simplicity and strength. Utilizing a left-hand thread to secure the hanger allows Yeti to incorporate the same machine piece for the axle retention. A clever little system the engineers spent many hours on that might get overlooked.
Internal Cable Routing – This may seem like a small thing, but having a clean aesthetic on the frame along with internally molded carbon tubes inside for hassle-free cable routing is key. It makes for a quiet ride and ease of maintenance. For Yeti, building a great frame is all about the details.
Integrated Frame Protection – The frame protectors for the down tube and chainstay are custom molded to match the frame. This guarantees a proper fit and adhesion to the frame for years of protection without the need for replacement or additional adhesives.
148mm Rear Axle Spacing
2 Bottle Cage Mounts
Fox 34 Factory – With a Float EVOL air spring and Fit4 damper, this solid fork is amazingly supple for how solid it feels. The ultimate trail companion, you can count on the 34 to get up and down the mountain, every time.
Fork Adjustments – FIT GRIP 3-Position Lever (Open, Medium, Firm), Rebound Adjust, Air Spring Pressure
SRAM X01 Eagle – From its 520% gear range to its smooth shifting and durability, X01 Eagle is a favorite of XC and enduro riders alike. Engineered to be ridden hard and designed to be easy on the eyes, X01 is all you.
SRAM Level TLM – The Level TLM is that sweet spot — alloy lever blades, DirectLink actuation, DOT 5.1 fluid, and a new two-piston, two-piece caliper — all in a compact, lightweight package.
SRAM Centerline Rotors
DT Swiss XM1700 – The best aluminium all mountain wheels. Period. That is what DT Swiss designed the XM 1700 wheels to be. They have given it everything needed to dominate the mountain. Light and robust welded rims, perfect tubeless compatibility for grip and puncture resistance as well as reliable hubs with Ratchet freehub and a 36 tooth engagement. Equipped with the XM 1700 SPLINE nothing can stop you from your personal all mountain adventure.
Maxxis Minion DHF Front Tire – With a tread design that deftly balances rolling speed with braking and cornering traction, it's hard to find fault with the Minion DHF. That's probably why it's one of the most imitated tires in mountain biking.
Maxxis Rekon Rear Tire – The Rekon is an aggressive trail tire inspired by the Ikon for intermediate and technical terrain. Wide knobs down the middle provide control under braking and L-shaped side knobs assure support when carving loose turns. With confidence like this you can race more and scout less with the Rekon.
Fox Transfer Dropper Seatpost – The latest Transfer keeps its smooth action and low-height stack design, but shaves 25g and updates its internals for even easier serviceability.
Yeti Carbon Bars – Made with the highest grade carbon and spec'd on all TURQ Series bikes. Each bar has cut indicators for fine tuning bar length.
