Beyond Sus is the star of the show here, as this beautifully painted bike comes with a RockShox suspension fork, and builds on the previous Bombtrack Beyond builds capability on rough surfaces. 

Getting your face sprayed with mud is not going to be an issue as Bombtrack has ensured that the fork can take mudguards, too. And talking of mounts, the Beyond Sus’ double-butted Columbus Cromor frame boasts top tube mounts, three bottle cage mounts on the downtube and one underneath, so you can bung on plenty of cargo.

The bike is running on tubeless-ready WTB ST i23 rims with WTB Venture Light tyres and Bombtrack Tau 12mm through-axle hubs that come with an XD driver body, which should be harder for cassettes to mar.

Beyond AL

The Beyond AL is the aluminium drop bar addition to the range. Thanks to its alloy frame, the Beyond AL is lighter than the other Beyond models, and Bombtrack says the heavily hydro-formed tube profile and fork have been optimized to a new ideal balance between stiffness and comfort. 

The top tube is slightly curved which the brand says makes the front end stiff and stable even when fully loaded and maintains comfort level seat tube. The Beyond AL comes with internal light cable routing and mudguard, rack and triple cage mounts for overnight trips.
