Yeti’s ASR Frame is aimed squarely at those looking for the fastest, most comfortable way to the top, but who aren’t willing to accept twitchy trail manners on the way back down. Most think of Yeti as a big-mountain kind of bike maker, but it knows a thing or two about lung-busting.
The ASR’s designed around a 120mm fork for a little extra downhill confidence, but if you’re so inclined, it’ll take a 100mm fork for extra pinner points, and a lower, slightly steeper feeling. The ASR forgoes Yeti’s various Switch multi-link system in favor of the tried-and-true (and lightweight) single-pivot design found on its bike for years. After going round and round, Yeti decided that the slight improvement in trail manners didn’t outweigh the added weight and complexity of the multi-link designs.
As longtime 29er holdouts, Yeti’s not about to compromise good geometry to stuff “clown wheels” into a frame where they don’t belong. For this reason, you’ll find that the Medium, Large, and Extra-Large sizes use the 29-inch wheel size, while the two smallest opt for the 27.5in size that’s fast become the new standard.
Yeti finished off the ASR with a PF30 bottom bracket, which will accommodate virtually any crankset on the market, and a FOX FLOAT CTD shock, which, in addition to being a pile of acronyms, provides a suspension tune designed specifically for the ASR.
