We Say:
The Bombtrack Hook EXT 2022! We LOVE the Bombtrack Hook EXT! Every time we ride one it reminds us of when we first got into getting loose on a hardtail MTB but with the added versatility of ride comfort and on/off-road speed - this bike is a Swiss Army knife of a bike for sure! Whether its rowdy, rooted single track or a loaded bike-packing trip across Scotland - this little puppy has got you covered. Now in a slick, stealth black colour-way!
They say:
The Hook’s hoodlum tendencies given free rein. Using a Columbus steel frame, dedicated carbon fork, and lively 27.5-inch wheels, the EXT can batter through territory out-of-bounds to other drop handlebar bikes. Backed by Sram’s 1 x 11 Rival groupset, this provides both the gearing range and braking power needed for extreme riding. Adding more build options, this year sees the addition of an integrated rear light mount. As capable on backcountry campouts as it is on post-work blasts, the Hook EXT remains the choice when you’re unsure of the terrain, but know you want to have fun riding it.
