Golden, Colorado-based Yeti Cycles has launched a new mountain bicycle that is designed to help shorter riders achieve a high degree of performance.
The 'SB135' is a mountain bicycle that was designed in such a way that its small and extra-small sizes use totally different frames rather than cutting corners through a one-size-doesn't-fit-all approach. More specifically, these two sizes make use of different swingarms allowing them to fit riders as short as 4'11" while maintaining a low-slung profile and still leaving enough room for water bottle storage.
What's more, these intelligent design specs will also generally appeal to riders who aren't as obsessed with speed as they do specific types of movements such as jumping and bouncing on their way down trails.
Ultimately, the 'SB135' serves as a fine example of catering to different physical demographics in the cycling sector.
