Quick Overview

A radical bike for big moves, takes over where dirt jumping hardtails are not enough.
Enables true singlespeed setups with no chain tensioners, or standard derailleur / single front ring setups.
Exceptionally nimble and manoeuvrable. Note: it has the shortest chainstay we have ever seen on production full suspension bikes.
Feels just like a Majesty frame but with the safety valve in the rear for big hits.
Designed to run with air shocks and very little or even no sag.
position.
The Soda range of dual suspension frames have been in development with NS Bikes for over 3 years now. The aim was to create the ultimate slopestyle frame that rode as well as the renowned NS hardtails.
This is a no gimmick suspension system designed to help riders boost higher and land bigger hits, rather than just plough through the travel. The frame has also been built with supreme torsional stiffness to handle new school dualie tricks such as 180's, 360's and whips.
