V10 8 CC DH X01 Mountain Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I love how the V10 feels planted at speed but still responsive when I need to make quick line changes. It’s the kind of bike that makes bike park laps feel smoother and faster, even when things get rough. Whether I’m chasing PRs or just lapping with friends, it gives me that confidence to push harder every run."

Who It’s For

Gravity-focused riders chasing speed and confidence

This bike is built for advanced to expert riders who want a true downhill machine for lift-served terrain, bike parks, and race tracks. It’s ideal for riders prioritizing stability, control, and big-hit capability over climbing efficiency.

What It’s For

Bike park laps, downhill tracks, and steep technical terrain

Designed for aggressive descending, the V10 thrives on steep, rough trails, jump lines, and high-speed rock gardens. It’s made for shuttle days and lift access where descending performance is everything.

Why We Like It

Proven downhill design with unmatched control

The Carbon CC frame with VPP suspension delivers a planted yet responsive ride, soaking up big hits with 208mm of travel. A SRAM X01 DH drivetrain keeps shifting simple and reliable, while SRAM Maven Silver brakes provide powerful, consistent stopping. Paired with FOX Factory suspension and mixed-wheel geometry, it balances stability and agility for confident descending.

Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help.
