Straight 44mm Head Tube
The Indigo Rustler features a straight 44mm head tube, enhancing front-end stiffness and durability. Paired with a Rock Shox Pike Select fork, which boasts a 1.5-inch tapered steerer, this setup ensures precise steering response and agile handling.
148×12 Rear Spacing and Thru Axles
Utilizing the Boost spacing standard with a 148mm rear end and 12mm thru axles, the Indigo Rustler reinforces frame rigidity and stability. Paired with disc brakes and large rotors, this setup provides reliable braking performance even in wet conditions.
Frame Tubing
The Indigo Rustler is equipped with robust double-butted tubing, featuring a 44mm diameter down tube and 35mm seat and top tubes to maximize stiffness. The slight bend in the seat tube allows for tighter wheel clearance, enhancing climbing responsiveness.
