Ns-bikes NS Define AL 150 1 2021 Bike

The beautiful carbon Define is now available in metal. It was a big challenge to translate the complex lines of this
bike to another material, and we have sweated every detail of this high-end alloy frame to make it as light and as
sexy as possible. Some of the unique features include an adjustable BB height and semi-integrated cable guides – a
practical and elegant solution of the internal / external cable routing dilemma. Big sealed pivots keep it stable and
guarantee long periods of smooth, service free function. There are a few things that we borrowed directly from the
Snabb – and that is the kinematics of the 4-bar suspension that everyone loves (Pinkbike: “There is so little
pedal-induced bobbing at play here that it sort of boggles the mind”).

Features

Adjustable BB Height

You can raise the BB height by 5mm from the stock settings by using the adjustable shock mount or you can completely
transform the bike by changing the shock mount & shock (changes travel from 155 mm to 130 mm or vice versa).

Oversized Bearings, Sealed Main Pivot

The pivot that is most difficult to replace is hidden inside the frame and remains completely isolated from dirt and
water inside the frame.

Hybrid Cable Routing

The cables appear to be threaded through the downtube and chainstay…
