Yeti SB4.5 Turq frame 2018THE ANSWER FOR RIDERS LOOKING FOR A VERSATILE 29'R RIG.Forget the 29er's of the past. The Yeti SB4.5 frame is designed specifically to optimize the 29" wheel platform and has a distinctly different personality. Riders will feel perfectly balanced between the wheels instead feeling top heavy or awkward. The proficient Switch Infinity suspension platform and short chainstays make this bike feel effortless on climbs and lively and plush on descents. For a bike that so clearly excels at climbing, the SB4.5 is incredibly balanced because of its long top tube and slack 67.4-degree head angle. Coupled with an optimal chainstay length and Switch Infinity suspension the SB4.5 feels more capable than a traditional 4.5" travel bike.Turq Series frames are made with the highest quality materials available and offer the perfect balance of stiffness and compliance. Every bike is tested by the best racers in the world, including EWS World Champion Richie Rude, Yeti's in-house testing team and ambassadors around the world. The result is a frame that is honed to excel in the most extreme environments and harshest conditions. You will experience a ride that feels smooth, solid and aggressive.The Switch Infinity is a simple, lightweight, bombproof system built by Fox Racing Shox from proven suspension components and engineered and tested to withstand the worst riding conditions. They only use the best components in its construction such as Kashima coated stanchions for low friction and durability, seals and bushings that are used in Fox's off-road racing division, and a lightweight forged translating pivot. These parts have been field tested for over three years and the original bushings, seals, and stanchions are still in perfect working condition.FeaturesYeti SB4.5 Turq Frame is made of the highest quality materials, and tested by the best riders in the business.Internal cable routing protects the cables from the elements while the bike's sleek appearanceTapered head tube saves weight and increases stiffnessBoost dropouts gives a boost to strength and riding characteristicsSwitch Infinity Suspension System provides an excellent platform that feels lively during climbs and plush on descentsSPECIFICATIONSFrameHigh modulus carbon fiber Yeti SB4.5 29er frame and swing arm, Switch Infinity suspension system, Internal cable routingWheel Size29"Fork140mm, tapered steer recommendedRear ShockFox Float Factory DPSHeadset IncludedN/AHeadtube DiameterTapered 44/56mmFront DerailleurN/ABottom BracketBB92 pressfitSeatpost30.9mmSeat Clamp35.0mm (included)Dropout Style12 x 148mm (Axle included)Accessory MountsWater bottle cageCable routingInternalIntended UseXC, TrailWeight-GEOMETRY (mm / inch)SizeSmallMediumLargeExtra LargeA: Seat Tube Length419 16.5445 17.5483 19.0521 20.5B: Effective Top Tube579 22.8605 23.8630 24.8655 25.8C: Stack608 23.9613 24.1622 24.5636 25.0D: Reach397 15.6421 16.6444 17.5465 18.3E: BB Height334 13.1334 13.1334 13.1334 13.1F: BB Drop36363636G: Head Tube Length90 3.595 3.7105 4.1120 4.7H: Head Tube Angle67.4 deg67.4 deg67.4 deg67.4 degI: Seat Tube Angle73.3 deg73.3 deg73.3 deg73.3 degJ: Standover Height751 29.6751 29.6751 29.6751 29.6K: Chainstay Length437 17.2437 17.2437 17.2437 17.2L: Wheelbase1127 44.41153 45.41180 46.51207 47.5Suggested Rider Height160-170cm 5'3"-5'9"170-180cm 5'8"-6'0"180-191cm 5'11"-6'3"185-198cm 6'1"-6'7"
