An additional highlight is the Simplon Individual System, with which you can build your desired frame according to your own ideas.
Simplon Individual System – It couldn't be more individual
Who doesn't dream of an individual bike. Everyone has their own wishes, ideas and needs. Thanks to the Simplon Individual System, every bike is unique. Using a modular system, you can select your desired frame model on the Simplon homepage and add the attachments according to your own ideas. Of course, there are also complete packages.
Simplon Razorblade 29
A first highlight in the Simplon MTB range is the Razorblade 29. Due to a completely new development of the 29er, it impresses with its low weight and high rigidity and thus ensures optimal propulsion without compromise. The perfectly coordinated geometry together with the 29-inch wheels lead to the ultimate riding experience. Anyone looking for speed, smooth running and agility without wanting to forego comfort will find what they are looking for in the Simplon Razorblade 29 Carbon Hardtail.
Simplon Razorblade 29 Features
- Carbon Chain Catcher
The extra-light CARBON CHAIN CATCHER prevents the chain from being dropped unintentionally and thus protects the high-quality carbon frame. The carbon plate can be adjusted to different chainrings via height adjustment. - Maximum power transfer
Highly profiled chainstays in the bottom bracket area ensure uncompromising rigidity and thus efficient propulsion, which makes the difference when accelerating around corners or on climbs.
Simplon Razorblade 29 SL
With the superlight version of the Razorblade 29, the carbon hardtail has been fully trimmed for climbing abilities and slimmed down again. With 250 grams less weight, climbs are hardly a problem. With uncompromising propulsion and nevertheless exceptional comfort thanks to the Vibrex® frame technology, the carbon hardtail with its high rigidity brings the necessary stability for the most demanding terrain with low weight. A real high-end bike that offers the optimal balance of speed, smoothness and agility.
Simplon Razorblade 29 SL Features
- Comfort Concept – Vibrex®
The unique driving comfort is created by flattened Vibrex® seat stays, almond-shaped top tube, flexible seat tube knot and flexing chain stays in the rear area. - Internal dropper post
In conjunction with the flattened Vibrex® seat stays, which fit together harmoniously in the seat tube node and ensure, among other things, excellent riding comfort. The fully integrated Kindshock LEV Integra 272 dropper post provides additional safety and driving pleasure. - Carbon Chain Catcher
The extra-light chain catcher prevents unwanted chain drop and thus protects the high-quality carbon frame. The carbon plate can be adjusted to different chainrings via height adjustment. - Maximum power transfer
The chain stays, which form a super-stiff high profile in the bottom bracket area, guarantee loss-free propulsion. The struts gradually flatten towards the rear wheel axle and thus offer the necessary vertical flex for optimum riding comfort.
Simplon Razorblade 275
The concept behind the Simplon Razorblade 275 is easily explained. For all those who, due to their height, cannot get along with a 29er and still want to take advantage of larger wheels. True to the motto: Big wheels for little pilots. The 27,5" wheels enable a more compact, lighter and more agile frame compared to the 29" counterparts. At the same time, the race carbon hardtail with 100 mm travel has the same advantages as its big brother. The usual features, such as the Vibrex® seat stays for optimal power transmission and comfort, are also used here.
Simplon Cirex 120
Another highlight in this year's Simplon series is the Cirex 120 Carbon Race Fully. With a 120 mm chassis, it is not only the ideal choice for ambitious racers but also for touring riders for every purpose. The outstanding kinematics, which have been technically improved again, and the low weight of the carbon frame ensure a more efficient start, so that you can accelerate even better. In addition, excellent traction should offer the driver the necessary safety on both fast and demanding trails.
Simplon Cirex 120 Features
- Center Cable Guide
Nothing is more annoying than annoying rattling while driving. No cable movement when compressing, no chafing on the frame, no rattling. The patented, rotatable cable guide not only tidies up visually, but also sets the standard when it comes to cable routing. - flexlink
The rear end of the new Simplon Cirex generates a full 120 mm of travel. Racers and touring riders benefit from optimal traction and highly efficient propulsion. The core is formed by the flexibly shaped and specially manufactured seatstays, which replace the rear hinge, making the frame even stiffer and lighter. This also reduces the maintenance effort. - Metric shock
The Cirex already features the latest "Metric Shock" damper technology. Longer pistons ensure greater rigidity, less sensitivity to heat and thus constant spring performance. - Boost
The rear dropout fixes special hubs with a width of 148 mm ("Boost"). The big advantage: The wider support significantly increases the rigidity of the wheels and thus guarantees more efficient propulsion. - chairlift
Standard for touring riders, soon a must for racers - the variable saddle position at the touch of a button ensures comfort and safety. The dropper post comes with an internally routed cable and 125 or 150 mm stroke.
Simplon Rapcon 160
With 160 wheels and a full 27,5 mm chassis, the Rapcon 160 offers the perfect companion for hard root passages and trails. Thanks to the light full carbon frame and the drive-neutral kinematics, the Rapcon 160 turns out not only to be a highly efficient enduro, but also a perfect touring bike. Thanks to the Adjustable Wheel Base technology, in which the chain stay length can be adjusted using a changeable insert, standard tires as well as wide "B+" tires up to 2,8" wide can be fitted without negatively affecting the handling of the bike . Thus, the geometry is easily adapted to the currently preferred tire. The combination of conical bearing seats and bearings ensures optimized bearing technology that guarantees a backlash-free connection.
Simplon Rapcon 160 Features
- Adjustable wheel base
In addition to the standard tires, the Rapcon bikes also have space for super-wide tires of up to 2,8″. The length of the chainstays can be extended from 430 mm to 440 mm using an interchangeable chip, and the height of the bottom bracket can be adjusted. This trick always guarantees the shortest possible chainstay for the respective tire and thus maximum maneuverability and agility. - stability and integration
The striking steering head area provides the necessary rigidity and stability in demanding terrain. In addition, all cables coming from the handlebars flow into the inside of the frame and ensure a tidy look thanks to complete integration. - Center Cable Guide
No cable movement when compressing, no chafing on the frame, no rattling. The patented, rotatably mounted cable guide not only tidies up visually, but also sets the standard when it comes to cable routing. - Metric shock
The Rapcon already springs with the latest damper technology "Metric Shock". Longer pistons ensure greater rigidity, less sensitivity to heat and thus constant spring performance.
Simplon Rapcon 140
The Rapcon with 27,5 inch wheels and 140 mm travel does not tolerate any compromises. From marathons to alpine crossings, from gravel tours to trail riding - everything's possible. Thanks to the Adjustable Wheel Base technology, in which the chain stay length can be adjusted using a changeable insert, standard tires as well as wide "B+" tires up to 2,8" wide can be fitted without negatively affecting the handling of the bike influence.
