Recoil Comp Complete Mountain Bike - 2016

Get into the full-suspension game with the 2016 Diamondback Recoil Comp Complete Mountain Bike. With a RockShox Monarch R shock in the rear and an SR Suntour XCR RL fork both providing 100mm of plush suspension, this bike is ready to rock in the dirt. It boasts a Shimano drivetrain with a huge range of 27 gear options, hydraulic disc brakes, and tubeless-ready 27.5in hoops wrapped in aggressive Kenda Honey Badger tires to power through the course.

The Recoil Comp's frame is hand-built from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, often regarded as the best all-around alloy from which to make bike frames. It's mostly aluminum, but also has composite components of magnesium and silicone, blended in the proper proportion to bestow the metal with rigidity, deformation resistance, and incredible torsional stiffness while still being one of the lightest alloys on the market. The bottom line is that this frame is ready to handle your worst while helping you ride your best.

Diamondback sticks with a reliable single pivot suspension with sealed cartridge bearings to smooth out the Recoil's ride. The unique design places the chainstay above the chain which we think has potential to significantly reduce annoying chain slap on burly trails. Its 100mm of squishy travel not only keeps things smooth, it also keeps your tires firmly planted on the trail for solid handling and sure-footed traction all day long. Paired with the stopping power of hydraulic disc brakes, this frame lets you rail berms and fly across the trail with confidence that the bike will go where you want it to go, at exactly the speed you prefer.
