Titus Racer X 29 product detail
Titus Racer X 29 configure/buy Racer X 29

Titus offers the Racer X in a variety of forms: ti, exogrid, carbon and more. One of the more popular choices is now 29" wheels. The Titus Racer X 29 provides superb traction, fast-rolling characteristics, and stability to spare. This stability is the most dramatic difference you'll feel in comparison to a 26" wheel. 29" wheels allow you to sit "between the wheels" rather than above them, effectively lowering your center of gravity and providing you with better all-around bike handling. We are amazed by this frame's ability to behave like a 26 inch Racer X, yet provide the desired characteristics of the 29.

For years, this frame has only been available in a titanium version, but now, Titus introduces a Racer X 29 with an aluminum front triangle. Like the standard Racer X, you get a strut-style Horst link design, and the traditional rockers you see on a Horst bike are instead replaced by an ultralight three piece carbon fiber X-Link linkage. The swingarm has tapered tubes and a hollow boxed lower forging. 80mm of travel and a Fox Float RP23 smooths out trail vibration, and you'll feel unparalleled torsional stiffness thanks to its use of four oversized cartridge bearings stacked at the main pivot and aluminum seatstays.

Titus recommends the use of either an 80mm or 100mm front suspension fork with the Racer X 29, selected to correspond with the frame size. The Small Titus Racer X 29 should use a 80mm travel fork, while the Medium and Large require 100mm of travel. Each is powder coated in a rich red. It is disc specific with a replaceable derailleur hanger. The Racer X 29 requires a 30.9 mm seatpost and a 34.9mm top-swing, dual-pull front derailleur.
