Fairdale is happy to introduce the Elevator; our 29" hardtail mountain bike that comes fully equipped with a SRAM GX Eagle groupset, a RockShox Pike fork, Alex wheels, Maxxis tires and more.
The Fairdale Elevator is a BMX-inspired, full chromoly all-arounder with a geometry that is focused on nimble maneuverability and predictable climbing and descending. While many modern bikes are long and low, the Elevator’s unique ride-feel will let you easily throw in a manual or re-adjust your position on a line, thanks to the super short 406mm chainstay length.
As always, making the ride fun is our main priority. This is a bike that lets you feel like a rider again instead of being a passenger. Proudly sticking to Fairdale’s user-friendly approach to frame construction, its straight seat tube will allow you to fully insert a dropper post of the maximum possible drop, and the Elevator’s removable, external cable routing is a breeze for assembly and maintenance.
Medium Reach: 5'7" - 5'11" height
Large Reach: 5'10" - 6'2" height
