Modern features | classic aluminum
The Jibe Firecracker is ideal for riders wanting the latest features and high end components of a performance XC mountain bike, without the high price tag of a carbon frame.
Shimano 1X12 Drivetrain
No clunky 3x drivetrains here. The Firecracker comes equipped with Shimano's tried and true 1x12 speed M6100 drivetrain.
Hydraulic brakes
Ditch the cables and experience epic stopping power thanks to front and rear Shimano hydraulic 160mm disc brakes.
120mm air suspension
Don't be dragged down by a steel coil spring fork. The Firecracker rocks the Manitou Markhor - a lightweight air fork that features Twin-Piston Chamber rebound damping.
Go small
Smaller riders, we thought of you. The extra small Firecracker frame can be built with 27.5" wheels, which lowers the stand over height to approximately 690mm to accommodate riders under 5 feet in height.
Optimized Tubing
The Firecracker frame was engineered to have the optimal tubing diameter and thickness in key areas, resulting in a lightweight, durable and compliant frame that offers riders a smooth ride.
Boost Spacing
Boost 110/148mm thru axles allows for increased lateral stiffness and precision handling.
Integrated Cable Routing
The integrated headset routing keeps your cables safely tucked away, and creates an elegant cockpit view.
