Introducing the HB916 — our 160mm rear travel bike, created from the ground up. While it shares a name with the HB160, it’s not a replacement, but a completely new ride with distinct DNA.
Designed for Enduro racing, the HB916 excels across stage formats and surfaces, from fast-paced 2-minute efforts to 20-minute technical descents, whether on the Scottish Moors or in the Alps.
We focused on making it efficient, well-balanced, and predictable — a bike that helps riders conserve energy on long days and perform at their best when it matters most.
The frame is produced in house at our Barnoldswick factory. The front triangle is constructed in one piece while the chain and seat stays are a hybrid construction of aluminium and carbon allowing us to keep pivot bearings fitted into aluminium and spaced as wide as possible to increase bearing life. The frame features internal cable routing, frame rubber protection and down tube storage which we like to call a ‘Butty Box’ in a typical northern way. The 2024 bike now uses a Fidlock mechanism to improve the function of this storage. Of course, the precious water bottle will fit inside the front triangle too.
