After three years of development, the Privateer Gen 2 frames are almost here. If you pre-order a bike, you get three wheels!
Privateer claims the development of their new Gen 2 Range includes over 500,000 meters of descending over three years. That’s a lot of time going downhill to ensure the suspension is dialed and the frames are durable. There’s a lot to discuss on the new Privateer Gen 2 141 and 161, so let’s drop in.
If you really want a Privateer Gen 2, it is probably a good idea if you pre-order it anyway. Privateer says they’ve decided to limit the quantities of the Gen 2 bikes for the 2024 season based on the current status of the bike industry, though frames are expected to be in stock starting in May, with complete bikes expected by the end of May.
Let’s talk about the glorious saga of the bike industry and its tumultuous fling with the Horst Link. It’s like witnessing the comeback of the underdog, the suspension system that all the so-called experts dismissed as passé and worn-out not too long ago . Yet here we are, observing its resurgence in cutting-edge suspension setups.
So, what’s the verdict? Was it objectively garbage all along? Or was it just conveniently garbage when it was under the thumb of the big, bad bike company? Ah, the mysteries of the bike industry never cease to amuse.Road BikeNewsCurve Cycling Crowdfunds the Titanosaur, a Monster 36″ Wheeled Gravel RigNewsAll New Specialized Torch 2.0 & 3.0 Road Shoes Offer Comfortable PerformanceForget chocolates and flowers, what you really want this Valentine’s Day is a new bike.
