Highlights Exceed CF 5

Ride without limits

A new kind of XC

There’s a new, free-spirited attitude to riding XC, and the Exceed is what it’s all about. Built to make quick progress up, down, and across any type of ground, the new Exceed is more capable and adventure-ready than ever, all while staying true to its fast and simple hardtail roots. No boundaries. No barriers. No limits.

Capacity for adventure

The Exceed has built a cult following in bikepacking circles for how it balances efficiency and capability. Faster than a gravel bike when the going gets rough, yet lighter than a full suspension setup, the Exceed hits the sweet spot for off-road adventure seekers.

Sophisticated premium artwork

Captivating, eye-catching and refined. The paintwork is transparently tinted, akin to a colour wash, highlighting the carbon structure and emphasizing the elegance and lightness of the frame. Every subtly different artwork results in a unique bike each time.

Integrated onboard tool storage

Mid-race fixes and mid-tour repairs have never been so quick and clean. The Exceed's LOAD Down Tube Storage is the slickest way to stash a spare tube and quick-fix tools totally out of sight and out of mind until you need it. Your bike is always ready to go whenever you are.

All the mounts you need

With space for two bottles plus a frame bag, front triangle real estate is what we love about hardtails like the Exceed. The new Exceed is even more adventure-ready thanks to a third cage mount beneath the down tube for additional liquids or more tools and spares.

Effective frame protection

Keeping things quiet when you’re on the trail and your frame shielded from wayward rock strikes, we’ve gone the extra mile to integrate rubberised protection where it’s needed most: under the down tube to help protect against stone strikes, on the chainstay ends to protect against heel rub, and on the chainstays to reduce sound and damage from chain slap.

A smooth, easy-to-service threaded bottom bracket

For long-lasting, smooth-spinning and creak-free reliability the Exceed now rolls on a 73 mm BSA threaded bottom bracket standard. Simple serviceability and parts availability, wherever you ride.

Bike classification

This category also covers the requirements of categories 1-2. In addition it includes use on harsher, unpaved terrain. The scope for these bikes includes occasional jumps up to a maximum height of 60 cm. Jumps of this scale can cause inexperienced riders to have accidents on landing, which can result in injury. Hardtail mountain bikes and full-suspension bikes with short travel are included in this category.
