MACRO BIKES - ADVENTURE HARDTAIL / SHIMANO / UP TO 60MM

MACRO BIKES - ADVENTURE HARDTAIL / SHIMANO / 29X2.4”(60mm)

"The Macro is amazing. I already knew it was an excellent climber and fast descender from the Atlas Mountain Race. It was more than up to the task, helping me keep up the pace I needed to finish the Accursed Race in third place."  Josh Ibbett 

RIDE DRIVEN DESIGN

The Macro has been tested in the world’s toughest environments. The Silk Road Mountain Race, Accursed Race, Atlas Mountain Race and the Arizona Trail have already established the Macro as vital equipment for MASON riders Josh Ibbett and Angus Young, as they take on the extreme environments of ultra endurance races.

NEW LIGHTWEIGHT CONFIGURABLE ADVENTURE HARDTAIL

The MASON Macro combines the capability to carry bikepacking gear across variable off-road terrain with the imperative to keep moving at racing speed. Build a lightweight, flat bar, fully rigid bikepacking machine or combine the Macro with a suspension fork to enhance comfort, control and momentum on extended, fast, multi-terrain adventures with more challenging trail conditions. The Macro is highly configurable, conceived around bikepacking loads, accessory attachment and fluid-carrying capacity from the outset. It is designed for customisation, allowing the rider to fine tune a configuration that matches their requirements and planned adventures.

ESSENTIAL DIMENSIONS

BRAKING

Rotor Size: The rear rotor diameter will be 160mm with the calliper mounted directly to the brake mount. An adapter can be used for a 180mm rear rotor maximum.

Caliper Type: This frame is designed for Post-Mount calipers. Use specific 'Flat-Mount to Post-Mount' adapter when fitting Post-Mount caliper to MASON 'HotShoe2' fork.

We always recommend using genuine brake mounting hardware and consulting us directly using the 'Technical' dropdown, or using a qualified cycle mechanic if in doubt.

WHEELS + AXLE SPACING

The Macro is designed around the 'BOOST' 148mm hub standard, allowing wider wheels and high volume tyres with larger clearances front and rear. The wider hub flanges result in a stiffer wheel, giving enhanced bike handling and shorter/wider stays allow progressive geometry, whilst a wider rear hub helps give a greater choice of chainrings.

SwitchLever: Ø15mm Thru-axle Front [For HotShoe2] / Ø12mm Thru-axle rear.

Axle length/pitch: Front [For HotShoe2] - 134mm/1.5tpi. Rear - 178mm/1.0tpi [For 'UDH']. 

HotShoe2 Front axle spacing: 110mm.

Rear axle spacing: 148mm.

TYRE SIZES

All frame sizes are designed for and tested with up to 29 x 2.4” tyres, fitted to 30mm internal rim width.

We're always here to help of course and would always recommend a professional bike fitting and visiting us for a ride on the Mason Cycles riverside gravel/country lanes test-loop if you can. There is further advice, based on specific models, below the height chart.
