Some say that 32” bikes look a bit out of proportion, but the ACTOFIVE I-TRAIN 32 proves the opposite. It looks great, especially equipped with Intend components. It is ready to shred!
The Dresden based ACTOFIVE brand is known for its customized approach when it comes to building high-end bikes. Nothing is left to coincidence. And not only creating the right geometry to individual sizes, also personality and style is being considered in finishing the bike.
The I-TRAIN is a full suspension frame with 120-140 mm of rear wheel travel and up to 150 mm on the front. It is offered in various wheel sizes, including a 32-inch version. It is completely CNC machined from billet 7075-T6 aluminium and features an adjustable pivot to set the required anti-squat and a flip chip to adjust frame height.
The I-TRAIN frame is light and fast. The entire structure for the 32” wheels has been optimized for increased loads, such as long travel forks, a shorter head tube and a longer rear end. And the shorter travel of the I-TRAIN range means an agile, efficient and responsive ride.
The bike on top is equipped with an Intend 32” Samurai fork and a Hover monocoque rear shock. Travel is 130 mm up front and 120 mm in the rear. Total weight of the bike is 12 kg.
The I-TRAIN offers various travel settings that make it a very versatile platform for all your riding specifics. Various wheel sizes and suspension travel lengths can be applied. By exchanging the setting elements of the chain stay you can easy convert from 29″ or 32″ to Mullet. It works for all travel options.
Simon Metzner, CEO: “I am proud of being independent and free to pursue ideas that truly fascinate me as MTB rider. With its variability, it offers me the perfect platform to test different setups, because I’m really into experimenting. Right at my local riding spots, it reawakens mellow trails to new life – bet you´ll have a blast on it too!”
