2018 Pyga Hyrax/Slackline - Large

If you don’t know about Pyga, you should! This bike is a do-it-all ripper that will get you through those 4000’ climbing days or shuttle runs on rowdy DH trails. Check out this review: https://www.vitalmtb.com/product/guide/Bikes,3/Pyga/Hyrax-X01-Eagle,22165

My Pyga Hyrax uses the same frame as the longer travel Slackline model but I wanted the flat raw carbon color of the Hyrax. I built it as a longer travel model by using an upgraded shock with a stroke length in between the two models to give 148mm of rear travel with a 160mm fork up front, along with the flip chip in the low/slack position. The result is a bike that pedals extremely well with improved descending capabilities. I’ve ridden it on most of the steeper/rougher trails around Tahoe without feeling like I’m being held back by the bike. I’m a former pro mechanic and take excellent care of my stuff, so it’s in nearly perfect condition.

The rest of the build kit is solid but not overkill, with the WeAreOne carbon rims and DT hubs proving to be bomber. I’ve never even needed to true the wheels in 3 years!

Note: The neon graphics are stickers that can be removed to reveal the factory gloss black logos underneath if you want that stealth look. The Pyga and Sensus crew can also make up a custom sticker kit for you as well.
