Juliana Wilder

It is designed to sit right in the middle. The Wilder balances the stiffness and efficiency needed for cross-country racing with the geometry and suspension travel required for technical trail riding, making it a versatile choice for riders who want one bike for both.

The 120mm fork provides enough cushion to smooth out roots, rocks, and drops without feeling sluggish on climbs. It is a sweet spot for riders who prioritize agility and speed over the heavy-duty absorption of a longer-travel enduro bike.

The Wilder is engineered specifically to maintain agility despite the larger 29-inch wheels. The geometry is tuned to keep the handling responsive, so you get the rollover benefits of big wheels without sacrificing the ability to navigate tight switchbacks.

Yes, the frame is specifically designed to accommodate two water bottles within the front triangle. This is a significant advantage for long training rides or backcountry adventures where you want to avoid carrying a hydration pack.

This bike is ideal for the rider who values climbing efficiency but doesn't want to feel nervous on the descent. With a 67.1-degree head tube angle, it offers a stable, confident front end that handles steep, technical sections comfortably while remaining nimble on flats.
