With Alma, performance becomes an obsession you feel in your body and soul. No other bike gives you a purer connection to the trail. Feather-light. Lightning-quick. Packed with technology to let you take it further and faster.

Pure Feel - Less Fatigue

Alma's X-Fader Technology removes fatigue inducing vibrations.

Careful control of tube profiles and materials, matched to our X-Fader technology helps absorb the trail chatter which adds to fatigue on long rides.

Connected Hardtail Handling

Rider and trail, more connected than ever with Alma's adept handling.

Performance Made Simple

Packed with features that add performance and simplicity.

Smooth Ride with X-Fader

X-Fader soaks up vibrations and reduces fatigue. Acting as a micro damper, the shaped seat tube is engineered to absorb energy-sapping vibrations and impacts, so you can ride harder, faster, and farther. It’s not just about comfort—it’s about staying sharp and in control when it matters most. The magic lies in achieving the perfect balance—just enough vertical flex to smooth out the trail without compromising the explosive acceleration and razor-sharp handling that hardtail riders crave. Prototypes were tested in our laboratory and refined by trail-testing with our riders. Thousands of kilometers helped us dial in the perfect balance. The result? A few millimeters of precisely tuned compliance that deliver the smoothest ride and uncompromised performance.

Advanced Frame Construction

Cutting-Edge Design. High Performance Materials. Alma's advanced carbon construction, optimized rear triangle and powerspine design gives a great balance of weight with optimal vibration absorption. That means less watts wasted through fatigue and more watts transferred to the rear wheel.

Advanced Carbon: The most technologically advanced carbon construction available to make the best frame possible. A complex and meticulous process that results in better riding behaviour. This painted size medium frame without hardware weighs 1.080 grams.

Optimized Rear Triangle: The flattened shape of chainstays and seatstays, together with a special carbon layup throughout the frame, increases vertical compliance. The flattened tube shapes resist lateral flex improving power transmission.

Powerspine: The lower spine of the frame handles the large majority of torsional and lateral loads, resisting flex and passing more watts to the rear wheel. Instant power transfer means addictive acceleration.

2.4" Tyre Clearance

Larger air volume and increased contact area mean more grip and a smoother ride.

Connected Hardtail Handling

No compromise geometry puts you in the position to connect with the trail. A perfect mix of nimble handling and capable descending with the added control of the 110mm fork.

No Compromise Geometry

Stable and Fast. The 67º headtube offers more control on descents and a generous wheelbase for improved stability while the 75.5º seat tube enhances pedaling dynamics, especially on steep climbs. Lower Standover: The lower frame height gives more space to move the bike side-to-side when sprinting or cornering, especially helpful to shave off seconds in races. Shorter seat tube: A shorter seat tube leaves more seatpost exposed, offering better absorption than a narrower dropper seatpost on a longer seat tube.

Capable 110mm Fork

110 mm travel fork. Alma's geometry is designed to work with a 110mm fork, hitting the sweet spot of bump-absorption and low weight. Three position hydraulic fork: The three quickly adjustable positions—fully open, pedal platform, and firm lockout—can be selected via our Squidlock or the dial on the fork crown.

Performance Made Simple

Focus on the trail and let us handle the details. Alma is full of features that help your ride flow.

Integrated Cockpit

Clean, lightweight and Stiff. Integrating the handlebar and stem gives the cleanest lines and lowest weight, improves steering accuracy, and permits more direct internal cable routing. Integrated handlebar and stem: The brand new integrated carbon cockpit weighs 265 grams and provides more control and improved SIC integration for up to three cables. Available in 760 mm width, -17º stem angle, and 75 or 90 mm stem length, with our integrated computer mount. Clean Cockpit: Our SIC system and HS02 headset facilitate seamless internal cable routing, leaving a beautifully clean cockpit.

Easy Control with Squidlock

Dropper and suspension control is just a click away. In terms of efficiency, less is more. With our Squidlock remote, everything you need is just a thumb click away. The two levers allow you to control a dropper post and fork without moving your hand from the bars. Compact and reliable, Squidlock integrates with either Shimano or SRAM brake clamps and works with many suspension systems. Ergonomics for Smaller Hands: Our suspension lever adaptor is included with each Squidlock. With more surface area, this simple solution greatly reduces the effort needed to access your suspension. Pop it on and go.

Lightweight OC MP10 Dropper

Light and infinitely adjustable. Our MP10 dropper post offers 100mm of travel, with full control over saddle height, rather than being limited to only two positions. The clamp is compatible with all saddle rail systems. All of this and only 419g.

Service window

The discrete hatch on the downtube gives easy access to the cables inside the frame for simple maintenance.

Smart Clips

Our innovative Smart Clips make it possible to fully insert a telescopic seatpost by allowing attachment of a bottlecage to the seat tube without metal frame inserts. They are removable and discreet when not in use.
