Yeti
SB165
Info
The SB6 has become a legend, but it too must move forward. The result is the SB165. A model on 27.5" wheels that pushes the boundaries of all downhill riding disciplines. "Low, slack and long" geometry with evolution for the next generation Fox spring shocks and a design language based on current Yeti models. 180mm fork travel combined with 165mm rear travel. Shimano returns with its 12-speed XT groupset, as well as the established Sram Eagle. Upgradeable to AXS electronic groupset.

GRAVITY TESTED
The SB165 is built tough. The frame meets Yeti DH testing standards, well beyond what others do for a 165mm trail bike. This thing will last for a lifetime, but we gave you a warranty to match just for good measure.
Chair lift, Shuttle truck or self-shuttle. The SB165 doesn’t discriminate. If you choose to earn your turns, it’s no slouch.

ANTI-SQUAT
Across our line, we have chosen a relatively flat and high anti-squat curve in the beginning and mid-section of travel where pedaling commonly occurs a.k.a. the pedaling zone. This creates an efficient pedaling platform through your entire pedaling zone, as opposed to one single point. After the pedaling zone, there is an inflection point where the Switch Infinity link moves down, dropping the anti-squat drastically. Riders are typically not pedaling in this zone, so chain forces have less of an effect on the suspension performance. Decoupling of the chain forces allows the suspension to work more efficiently to absorb impacts making the feel of a Yeti distinct
When seeking to find the outer limits of personal performance, it would be a shame to reach the limit of your bike first.
