Our 140mm/150mm travel Primer trail bike is pure perfection… everywhere. The Primer 275 has all of the DNA of its bigger wheeled sibling, the Primer 29, but this time on nimble 27.5” wheels.

Size
With the Primer 275 you get trail-flattening speed over any obstacle, both on challenging climbs and technical descents. Still, the smaller wheels make the bike slightly more responsive, agile, and better suited to tighter trails. In short, the Primer is the ultimate all-around performance trail bike, and it could be the only mountain bike you’ll ever need.

VERSATILITY

The Primer trail bike is the most versatile model in our range. With 140mm of rear travel and 150mm up front, we have designed a bike that is capable and balanced but also nimble and fun at the same time, giving you confidence on long, all-day rides, jumps, or laps in your local woods.

TRUE TO TRAIL

The frame is the heart and soul of any bike. Our Primers are built around our perfectly designed monocoque carbon frame, with a dual-strut design rear triangle, optimized carbon fiber layup, a carbon top link, and adjustable 'Flip Chip" technology.

FLIP CHIP ADJUSTMENT

The Primer 275 has a 'Flip Chip' feature which allows you to alter your bike's geometry between two positions. The High setting is best in technical terrain, while the Low is more suitable for flow and bike park-style riding.

THE JS TUNED TRAIL LINK

What this means is that you get a supple and sensitive ride that initially absorbs small bumps, then seamlessly moves into a supportive mid-stroke platform (which helps to maintain ride height) and finally into a controlled ramp-up towards bottom-out. All this translates into a very predictable ride that offers plenty of support, can tackle anything, and gives endless grip in all situations.

ALL FULLY BUILT BIKES COME WITH A COMPLEMENTARY TOOL KIT, SO YOU CAN BUILD AND MAINTAIN YOUR BIKE.

WHOLE BIKE WARRANTY

The INTENSE Warranty covers the frame and parts so you don't have to worry about the hassle.
