Ragley Marley 2.0 Hardtail Bike 2017

Ragley Marley 2.0 Hardtail Bike

Building on the success of the award winning 2016 Marley, the updated Ragley Marley 2.0 27.5" Hardtail Bike is designed as a trail-friendly bike with All-Mountain capabilities; the Marley is created for exploration, adventure and play.

It is for people that ride with their saddle up as much as their saddle down. At home on any terrain, from tearing around your local trail centre, snaking down your local singletrack or backcountry adventures in the middle of nowhere. The Marley 2.0 will push your skills to new limits and beyond!

Aluminium Frameset

The Marley frameset features ISCG 05 tabs and a 44/56mm tapered headtube to keep the front stiff and low. It is made from custom butted aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminium tubing resulting in a frame that is lightweight and supple enough to provide comfort on longer rides whilst robust and stiff enough to take all you can throw at it.

Comfortable, Fun Geometry

Geometry is taken very seriously at Ragley, as it is the most important part of any bike's personality. It defines the bike and ultimately dictates the way a bike will interact with you and the trail.

Ragley's updated trail geometry has been designed to mimic the characteristics of a modern full suspension bike but obviously without the sag at the rear. This is why Ragley's bikes seem slack when static. However once the rider is on the bike, the front suspension will sag, steepening the head angle by the desired amount.

Designed with a 65.5˚ head angle (67˚ at ride height) and a long top tube, the Marley is designed to run a short stem (Between 40-60mm) to give fine control and stability at high and low speeds, especially over rough and technical terrain. The low bottom bracket (Similar to a modern full suspension bike at Sag) and short chainstays maximise manoeuvrability, cornering, traction and playfulness whilst the steep seat angle puts the rider central on the bike ensuring climbing prowess.

The new Marley 2.0 should see you climbing up, going along and flying down faster than ever before!

Finishing Kit

Leading the way and smoothing the trail ahead is a pair of Suntour Raidon XC LOR forks with 120mm of bump-munching travel, tapered steerer and a 15mm bolt thru-axle to ensure accurate steering through the most challenging lines. The air spring allows fine adjustment to suit any rider whilst keeping weight to a minimum.

The wheels are made up from Tubeless ready WTB STP I23 Rims, laced to Formula hubs with surefooted stability provided by WTB tyres: an aggressive 2.3 Vigilante Comp – with custom High Grip Compound on the front and a fast rolling 2.25 Trail Boss on the rear.

Power is provided through a 2x10 speed drivetrain using FSA Gamma Drive cranks, Deore shifters, Deore front derailleur and Deore rear derailleur with a clutch to keep your chain in place and noise to a minimum. Once you are up to speed, dependable and powerful Shimano M396 hydraulic disc brakes will help keep you in control.

The cockpit and contact points are ready for action with a wide 740mm Ragley bar and short 50mm stem. To ensure comfort on even the longest of rides they have added the Ragley Tracker saddle.

Easy Assembly

When you order a bike, one of our trained mechanics will carefully prepare and pack your bike for shipping. Upon delivery, the assembly is simple and all necessary tools are conveniently included in the box.

Depending on the delivery service and destination, bikes will either be delivered in a large or a small box. Below is a guide as to how your bike will arrive:

• All bikes for delivery within the UK and Republic of Ireland will be delivered in a large box, except for kids’ bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer's boxes.
• All bikes for delivery within the EU on a standard service will be delivered in a large box. If an express delivery option is chosen, your bike will be packed into a small box. Again, the exception is kids’ bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer's boxes.
• All bikes for worldwide delivery outside the EU will be delivered in small boxes.
