Rubicon Classic Dual Suspension All Wheel Drive Mountain Bike

The new Jeep® Rubicon TM Sport and Classic AWD mountain bikes are the first of their kind in the world. Designed to tackle the toughtest terrain, they both incorporate all the great advantages that are associated with any Jeep® vehicle on or off the road. With increased traction available at the push of a button, you can conquer conditions that you thought were un-rideable before. AWD provides greater control over wet roots and slippery rocks. You can power up steeper, more difficult hills and will stick like glue to side slopes and corners. The AWD systems is so efficient; it is hard to tell whether it is engaged until you need it. When rear traction is lost, you can engage the system and add the power to the front wheel. It also works whether you are peddling or coasting allowing you to descend a hill with confidence and corner more aggressively due to added front wheel grip. The benefits of all wheel drive include increased traction in difficult uphill climbs, improved traction in loose surfaces that include sand, now and mud and better control in downhill riding. Riders of all levels looking to increase their performance and capabilites will find that the new Rubicon TM AWD mountain bike has what is expected from a Jeep®.
