A seriously rapid bike demands serious components in the pursuit of speed. That's the reason that, for the Reaction C:62 SLX, we began by selecting a Fox Float 32 Performance SC fork – to help you keep the rubber side down and pointing where you want it. Sram's GX Eagle Transmission 1x12 gears serve up the huge range and crisp, accurate shifts you'd expect. A Newmen Beskar 30 wheelset shod with Schwalbe's Racing Ray and Racing Ralph 2.25in tyres delivers rapid acceleration and all the grip that you need. And, last but by no means least, Magura MT8 Pro hydraulic disc brakes give you the power you need to brake harder, later, and stay on the gas for longer.
