The Silverback Splash Elite MS Hardtail Mountain Bike is a true standout in its class, offering excellent specs for a high-value ride that you can take from the trail to the streets. The women's specific 6061 aluminium frame is light and easy to control, featuring a lowered top tube and geometry that combines comfort and performance. The SR Suntour XCR32-ATB Air Suspension fork with 100mm travel and LOR damper keeps you comfortable and capable off-road while the 10-speed Microshift shifter keeps changing gears simply while you focus on the trail ahead. Hydraulic Disc Brakes provide excellent braking control that delivers in all weather and the finishing touch of double-wall alloy rims and 27.5" tyres hit the perfect balance of traction and speed.
The Silverback Splash Elite MS Hardtail Mountain Bike provides the full package of comfort and performance, with excellent components including the lightweight alloy frame, hydraulic disc brakes, front suspension fork and Microshift (MS) drivetrain for those looking for a versatile women's specific mountain bike.
Front Suspension Fork
Air Sprung Front Suspension Forks like the Splash Elite's SR Suntour XCR32-ATB offer significant advantages over traditional coil-sprung forks. The main benefit is the significantly reduced weight: an air fork's weight can be almost half that of a traditional coil fork, making climbing hills an absolute breeze. Air forks also offer progressive compression rates and significantly more adjustment options, from changing the air pressure within the fork to manually adjusting the rebound or locking your fork out.
Hydroformed Alloy Frame
Made with 6061 aluminium, the Splash Elite MS's double-butted frame is hydroformed for a sleek, aerodynamic look. 6061 aluminium is both strong and lightweight, while internal cable routing reduces drag and catching points.
Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Hydraulic disc brakes offer better braking performance in all conditions, including wet weather and off-road. The hydraulic system offers greater control and better feedback through your levers for increased braking confidence!
