The Duke is a great entry level MTB, it's dual suspension system making it a great choice for those looking for a little extra comfort and capability.
Adopting a robust Steel frame, Duke differs from it's full suspension siblings through it's square geometry, almost resembling a crossbar, hardtail frame. The suspension mechanism itself operates through a hinged swingarm, thus not relying on clearance between the seat post and swing-arm... meaning regardless of saddle height, you have full travel! Combined with it's suspsion forks up front, Duke is certainly equipped for an unknown detour.
As for gearing, Dallingridge have used a broad Shimano 18 speed system with simplistic, beginner friendly Revoshift twist-grip shifters. Combined with the V-Brakes on the front & rear, you're in good hands on the way up, and indeed on the way down.
Thinking of testing the waters of MTB, but dont want to break the bank? Or perhaps you're a teen looking to take the next step in cycling? Duke it!
