JULIANA BICYCLES JOPLIN 29 C / R1 AM 29 / FOX RHYTHM 120 29

JULIANA JOPLIN 29 C 2017 COMPLETE BIKE
with R1 AM 29 KIT

Part endurance racer, part rowdy trail bike—the Joplin is
ridiculously fun. The original model redefined what people
thought a 29er could be. This latest version breaks the mold
all over again.
Conventional wisdom always held that a big-wheel bike like this
was good for one thing—covering lots of ground quickly. We’ve
never had much use for conventional wisdom. Yes, the Joplin
is a fine cross-country/endurance machine. With its light-yetstiff
carbon frame, efficient VPP® rear suspension, and 29-inch
wheel option, this bike can be an absolute race weapon—but
the Joplin is more than that.
The Joplin has always been, to reduce this thing to a single
word, fun. As in the uncontrollable-giggling-spontaneous-highfiving
kind of fun. We cranked the knob on that particular trait
to 11 this year with a ground-up redesign that increases the
bike’s composure on descents, adds a bit more small-bump
suppleness to the mix and improves its handling in tight turns.
The new Joplin also gives you the option of running either
29er or 27.5+ wheels. If you’re looking for quick acceleration
and a nimble feel, go 29er. If you’re wanting extra traction and
a more forgiving ride over roots and babyhead rocks, go 27.5+.
It’s your choice.
Is the Joplin a cross-country racer? Sure. A trail bike? Absolutely.
Is it fun? Oh, hell yes.
This CC-level carbon frame is every bit as stiff and strong as
our C-level frames, but weighs about 280 grams less, due to
the use of some lighter, stronger, and more expensive carbon
fiber. Using this material in key places allowed us to use less
material overall, which is what shaves off more than half a pound
from the frame.
