ARRIVAL OF THE FITTEST
We drew on everything we’ve learned from years of crafting the highest-quality carbon full-suspension bikes and added the super-efficient Superlight™ suspension to create a World Cup-winning XC race bike. While the Blur isn’t guaranteed to make you a race winner, being the lightest full-suspension carbon XC bike we’ve ever made might be the difference between contending for first place or just crossing the line.
AN UNLIKELY DUO
A SUPERLIGHT™ FULL-SUSPENSION XC BIKE
Cross-country racing isn’t just a power lap around the park anymore. The courses are challenging, and the competition is fierce. Superlight™ provides traction to avoid wobbles while keeping overall weight down. By reducing the number of moving parts, bearings, and linkages, we saved 289g compared to the previous Blur.
A FAIR ADVANTAGE
Our priority with the Blur was to ensure that every kilojoule of a rider's energy is translated into forward thrust. That meant making something lightweight but also really efficient. This is the (super)lightest suspension we've ever made.
Filters:
Blur S 2024

Design Details
Superlight™ Suspension
Our lightest and most efficient suspension platform to date converts your watts into maximum thrust.
Carbon Mastery
Choose between our top-end, lightweight Carbon CC frame or the value-minded Carbon C frame. Both come with a lifetime warranty.
Two Water Bottles
Two bottle mounts within the front triangle provide enough juice (or whatever electrolytes you prefer) to keep the engine running. A third underneath for extreme thirst.

Sizing & Geometry
If you're on the cusp between the recommended height range of two sizes, the absolute best thing is to try to ride them both. At a minimum, check the stack/reach measurements on your current bike and compare it to the new model you are looking at to get an idea of a fit you are already comfortable with. If riding the bike is not an option, consider the following.
