Yeti  2011 ASR 5 Carbon Frame

No longer will you need to sacrifice speed for versatility; the ASR 5 offers the tight, fast handling of an XC race bike with the plushness and versatility of an all mountain rig. At the heart of the bike is an Active Suspension (AS) frame design, soaking up the rough stuff and transferring power from the pedals to the rear wheel without a loss of energy. Up front the main triangle is constructed of hydroformed aluminum, giving it a stunning appearance while adding strength and stiffness at a very low weight. However front-end stiffness is just half the battle, that's why Yeti engineers choose to fabricate the rear triangle using a blend of high and standard modulus carbon fiber. This allowed them to build a layup that keeps the wheel tracking as straight-as-an-arrow while maintaining lateral rigidity. And if needed or preferred the rear dropouts can convert from QR to thru axle (sold separately).

The dirvetrain offers smooth and consistent shifting even under the harshest conditions thanks to its wide range SRAM 10 speed set up. You'll be able to climb with ease and sprint out of the saddle without running out of gear. Speed is useless without control, that's why you'll find Avid Elixir disc brakes at the wheels. They offer an unparalleled combination of power, modulation and low weight.

On the trail you'll feel as if you're driving a vehicle with sport-tuned suspension. It's balanced and perfectly tuned. The low bottom bracket and neutral steering geometry keep the bike controlled and predictable when you bring it up to speed and carves turns extremely well. If you have been holding on to your hardtail or short travel bike because you worry about compromising efficiency or weight, you need to get an ASR 5.
