We’ve based Session’s sizing on reach to ensure you can find the setup that’s right for you.All speed, no hang-upsSession’s high-pivot design results in a rearward axle path that lets the back wheel move with the rearward force from bumps, not against it. On the trail, it feels like smoother suspension that maintains more forward momentum and provides more grip.Tune for your trailWith Mino Link adjustments on both geometry and suspension, you can easily tune your Session to a progressive feel for racing days or dial it back for park days.Active Braking PivotActive Braking Pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.Size-specific chainstay lengthThe chainstay length, or rear centre, grows as the frame reach grows so you get balanced weight distribution no matter your frame’s size. High-speed control and big mountain fun for everyone.
