Arctodus

Arctodus was built around a 26" x 4.8" tire for optimal handling and control on loose trails. It can fit the biggest 26" and 27.5" fat bike tires in the world, at 26" x 5.05" and 27.5" x 4.5" respectively. Arctodus is the only bike to clear tires this big with a 12-speed drivetrain without chain interference. We achieve this by using a 5mm offset with the rear wheel. When a bike is created for big rides with fresh snow, it needs to fit tires that were designed for the same reason. This is a bike that prays for snow and cuts its own trail.

A key feature in all Otso bikes is adjustable geometry and the ability to adapt the bike for the ride ahead. The patented Tuning Chip rear dropout system can change wheelbase length by up to 20mm, raise or lower the bottom bracket height by up to 4mm, and change the head tube angle by +/- 0.5º. Use the rear position when the trails are loose and you need as much control as you can get. Use the front position when the snow is firm and the trails let you take turns with a little speed. This frame is also compatible with Wolf Tooth GeoShift 1º and 2º Angle Headsets, effectively unlocking five head tube angles from 66.5º to 70.5º. No matter the conditions, Arctodus has an answer.

There's no need to wait for the trail groomer. Arctodus was made for foot trails, forest paths, and snow-covered frozen lakes. The bombproof steel frame can withstand the demands of an expedition. A large front triangle can fit a healthy full frame bag. The carbon fork has mounts on either side for cargo. A rear rack can be attached via mounts on the seat stays. Even the geometry is catered for exploration, with optimal stability in deep snow. Whether you're exploring local trails or a national forest, you can trust Arctodus to keep you riding.
