Second generation Intense Tracer breaks cover

Wednesday, 8 February 2017 Mark Sutton

Three years in the making, Intense has lifted the lid on its second generation carbon Tracer.

Formerly Interbike’s 2014 “Bike of the Year”, the Tracer remix brings geometry more in line with modern trail trends with longer reach and a full extra inch of wheelbase, providing a more stable ride. The JS Tuned suspension platform has been refined and offers an updated carbon top link, providing a stiffer package and more efficient pedaling platform.

Intense owner Jess Steber was pivotal in bringing the new design to fruition, often found on the factory floor getting his hands dirty during prototyping.

To be offered as a frame only, as well as specced with five differing build kits, the chassis centres around the JS-Enduro link pivot system, with all cabling routed internally and Flakguard protection in vulnerable areas.
