The New 2024 Chromag Rootdown

INTRODUCING THE NEW 2024 ROOTDOWN.

The V6 carries forward the tried and tested geometry the Rootdown is known for with all sizing spec. remaining consistent to the previous version. New for 2024 are updates to tubing, materials, finishes, machined junction and interfaces.

The Rootdown is built with our own custom butted 4130 tubing. They are built to last. A capable all mountain bike, designed for the steep demanding terrain available at our doorstep, right here in Whistler, B.C

2024 is the year of gradient graphic packages. We've paired that with reserved colours; Chestnut and Black.

Frame Details

	New Tubing The V6 Rootdown uses our most advanced chromoly tubing to date. New forming processes, butted profiles, and heat treatment, achieve higher yield strengths that rival exotic name-brand tubes.
Updated ED Coating ED (Electrophoretic Deposition) coating is the process of applying a thin layer of coating to all surfaces of a part, both inside and out. This gives our frames great corrosion protection as the inside of all tubes are also coated. The ED coat also acts as a great primer for the paint to adhere to.
	Update to Threaded BB Yes, we are finally moving away from PF92. We did like the bigger tube, wider bearing stance and lots of weldable space, but variations between different brands’ BB assemblies made for varied fit results. Threaded BB’s prevail as the standard for compatibility and keep choices open to run what ever brand of BB you want to run.
Redesigned Yoke We’ve redesigned our yoke and chainstay layout around this universal interface.
	Update Post Mount brake tabs Post mount tabs reduce hardware and the need for adaptors. If you are running the stock 180mm rear rotor you won't need an adapter at all.

The new Rootdown is a continuation of a story that has been evolving ever since we first started making hardtail frames over 20 years ago. We love the simplicity and purity of hardtails and revel in how capable and versatile they can be. The V6 Rootdown represents everything we’ve learned and evolved into this model to date! The Rootdown can be a bike for almost any type of ride and if you are looking for a 29er hardtail that delivers confidence and versatility in some of the most demanding terrain, the Rootdown is ready to deliver!
