Yeti SB160 C2

The Switch Infinity system uses a sliding pivot that changes its position as the bike moves through its travel. This creates a highly efficient pedaling platform that resists bobbing on climbs while remaining supple enough to track over roots and rocks, giving you better traction than a traditional fixed-pivot design.

While it is built with enduro racing geometry, the bike is surprisingly capable on long trail rides. The efficient suspension and modern geometry make it manageable on climbs, though its weight and travel are optimized for aggressive descending rather than cross-country speed.

The Eagle Transmission is a hangerless drivetrain that mounts directly to the frame, providing significantly improved shifting precision under load. It is much more robust than traditional derailleurs, which is a major advantage when you are navigating rocky, technical terrain where impacts are common.

Yes, for smooth, flowy trails, this amount of travel can feel like 'too much bike,' potentially making the ride feel sluggish. However, if your local trails include steep chutes, drops, or high-speed rock gardens, that extra travel provides the stability and confidence needed to ride faster and safer.

Yes, the bike comes with tubeless-ready wheels. While they are ready for a tubeless setup, you will typically need to add sealant and install the valves to complete the conversion before your first ride.

The C/Series uses a slightly different carbon layup that is designed to be more cost-effective and durable. While it is marginally heavier than the premium Turq series, it offers the same stiffness, geometry, and ride quality, making it an excellent choice for riders who prioritize performance over saving a few grams.
