Yeti SB4.5 Carbon XT 29er Mountain Bike 2017 Black/Turquoise

Season:2017

Brand:Yeti Cycles

Code:YCB17S45C-Raw

The Yeti SB4.5 Carbon 29er Mountain Bike 2017 is the answer for riders looking for a versatile 29er rig. The SB4.5 frame design is optimised for 29" wheels and has a distinctly different perfonality than 29ers of old, ensuring the rider feels perfectly balanced between the wheels - not top heavy or lumbering. The proficient Switch Infinity suspension platform and short chainstays make this bike feel effortless on climbs and lively and plush on descents.

For a bike that so clearly excels at climbing, the SB4.5 is incredibly balanced, it's longish top tube and sensibly slack 67.4-degree head angle instill confidence on challenging descents. Coupled with an optimal chainstay length and Switch Infinity suspension the SB4.5 feels far more capable than any of its competitors.

Yeti SB4.5 Carbon XT/SLX 2017 Features

  • Ready to tackle any type of terrain

Yeti SB4.5 Carbon XT/SLX 2017 Build Highlights

Nothing climbs like a 29er and the SB4.5 is no exception. Add on a Shimano XT 11x46 rear cassette and you have yourself a relentless ascender. When the trail goes down, the SB4.5 Carbon XT/SLX Fox Performance suspension comes alive atop Yeti's Switch Infinity platform.

  • Fox 34 Performance 140mm Boost fork
  • Fox Float Performance rear shock

  • Race Face Turbine dropper seatpost

Yeti SB4.5 Carbon Frame Details

Utilising the same design and geometry of the SB4.5 TURQ series, the SB4.5 Carbon offers similar stiffness and durability with a nominal 240 gram increase in weight. The SB4.5 Carbon is built strong enough for Richie Rude, but made for us regular shredders.

Switch Infinity Translating Pivot - Explained

The Switch Infinity holds full control of the bikes 4.5" of suspension, switching direction as the bike moves through its travel to result in a confidence inspiring performance that feels simply amazing on the trail. As you move through the bikes travel the pivot switches direction, early on in the movement it heads upwards, providing anti-squat and optimal pedalling.

Further along the travel the pivot eventually switches to a downwards movement, providing you with a bottomless feeling that stops any chain force from affecting how the suspension performs. All resulting in an efficient, fun to ride and most importantly high performing ride both on the up and down hill!
