The ideal hardtail frame for fast and stable trail riding over rough terrain, all-mountain exploration and loops at your local bike park, the Big Al Hardtail Frame from Ragley is versatile, nimble and reliable.
With its alloy frame, enduro-inspired geometry, internal dropper post cable touring while being compatible with 29" wheels and modern components, this frame is a superb go-anywhere model.
The Big Al is the 29” counterpart to the Marley; designed as a fun all-rounder with the same performance and value that made its smaller-wheeled sibling a multiple test winner.
Sharing the custom butted 6061 alloy tubing, the Big Al balances a stiff frame with enough compliance for the longest days in the saddle. ISCG 05 chain guide tabs, a 44/56mm tapered head tube, internal dropper seat post compatibility and 148x12mm boost rear end all keeping things bang up to date.
As with all Ragley hardtails, the joy really is in the geometry: A perfect balance between all-out gravity led tomfoolery and practical pedalability. Just like the Marley, the Big Al is well mannered during a leisurely all-day ride but drop the saddle and send it down the rough stuff for the good times…
