The Collosus T’s 160mm fork does make it a little bit of an outlier compared to the other 6 contenders, but the 140mm of rear travel and wide range of geometry adjustments means that it’s not a totally out-there option for riders on the hunt for a trail bike. Plus, there’s the price - $3,799 for a carbon frame bike with a decent parts spec is a good deal, one that started to look even better once we got it out on the trails.
