120mm to 140mm Travel
CNC-Machined Headtube & BB

Tube Shaping Designed For Trail Smashing


The Pinhoti III gains a whole new range of tube shaping. From curves of the downtube and seattube, to the subtle shaping along the stays, all tubesets have been updated in the interest of performance gains, namely greater vibration damping capacity.

Designed And Built For The Next Trail


To accommodate for a wide range of tire and chainring clearance, the Pinhoti III employs an asymmetric dropped chainstay receiving a striking new CNC-machined titanium chainstay yoke.

More Confidence, More Agility, More Comfort, More Fun


We’ve updated the geometry from the original Pinhoti to deliver confidence that allows you to go with open, reckless abandon. Tubeset shaping enhances comfort for the long ride. As trail riding has evolved, our engineers got more creative, and did a complete makeover, modernizing our signature trail model.
