Actually, ascetics are strange people: they fast, take vows and are quite fun-free for the sake of virtue. The ASKET is different: while its appearance is modest, unobtrusive and minimalist, it was built with a grand vision: to bring its rider true enlightenment. In times of sensory overload and excess, one does well to focus on the essential. Following the example of asceticism, we direct our focus on ourselves, on our faults and weaknesses: crept in by the forgiving excess of suspension travel of modern full-suspension bikes. Only those who take a hard look at themselves will develop further. As we all know, ascetics like to sit on a bed of nails. The ASKET is the complete opposite: the flat steering angle gives confidence, the short rear triangle guarantees a playful riding style and the steep seat angle ensures that the uphill becomes a ride to heaven. With dropper post and 1by drive, the ASKET finally becomes a real temptation that even strong-willed bikers will not be able to resist.
We call this type of bike "HardTrail", a bike without suspension travel at the rear, but instead with a soberly thought-out geometry that guarantees unconditional riding pleasure. Until now, such specialists could only be found among high-priced niche manufacturers. Thanks to the excellent price-performance ratio, the ASKET will find its place in the cellar next to many an enduro or downhill bike. It is aimed at riders who are looking for a second bike, whether for the after-work round in moderate terrain, as an indestructible companion for the muddy season or as a challenge for riding technique. At the same time, however, beginners will also be happy with the ASKET Hardtail: in view of the low price, it is an excellent mentor for anyone looking for their first contact with the terrain.
You come home after a stressful day and just want to clear your head on an after-work tour. But it may be a while before you're finally on the road. Is the damper setting right? What equipment do you need? And is it even worth getting the bike soaked now? The ASKET takes the decisions off your hands. With this mountain bike, you don't have to think twice about whether it fits right now. Because it does! For any weather and for any trail. Don't think about it, just hit the slopes. With the ASKET hardtail, your focus is finally back on what really counts.
