Northrock XC90 Hardtail Mountain Bike, 29 Inch Wheels, 17.5 Inch Aluminium Frame, Shimano CUES 1x10

Northrock XC90 Hardtail Mountain Bike

The Northrock XC90 is a 29 inch hardtail mountain bike for riders ready to move from canal paths to proper singletrack. Its handcrafted all-aluminium 17.5 inch frame is built for stiffness with reduced weight, and a wide-range Shimano CUES 1x10 drivetrain makes steep climbs and rooty descents feel manageable. At 14.9 kg it stays light enough to lift onto a car rack after the ride.

Hardtail Efficiency, Trail-Ready Control

Entry-level mountain bikes often hide heavy frames, basic coil forks and front derailleurs that drop chains on rough ground. The XC90 runs a single-chainring Shimano CUES setup with a CS-LG300 cassette, RD-U6000 1x10 derailleur and SL-U6050 trigger shifter, linked by a durable Shimano LG500 chain. Up front, an SR Suntour XCT fork with 100mm travel, preload and hydraulic lockout lets you firm things up for climbs and open it for descents. Integrated cable routing keeps the lines tidy and protected.

Components That Earn Their Place

• Shimano CUES 1x10 Drivetrain: one shifter and a wide-range cassette give simple, precise changes with less to go wrong on muddy trails.
• SR Suntour XCT Fork: 100mm of travel with hydraulic lockout: lock it for road climbs, open it for technical descents.
• Maxxis 29 Inch Tyres: fast-rolling, lightweight tan wall tyres deliver traction and control over roots and loose gravel.
• Alloy Double Wall Rims: lightweight yet strong wheels that keep their shape through repeated rough trail riding.

FAQs

Q: Is the XC90 frame strong enough for rough trails?

A: The handcrafted all-aluminium frame is built for stiffness with reduced weight, designed to deliver power over any ride or obstacle. Paired with alloy double wall rims and a 100mm travel SR Suntour XCT fork, it is set up for regular trail centre and woodland riding.

Q: How does the 1x10 drivetrain differ from a bike with front gears?

A: A 1x10 setup uses one chainring at the front and a wide-range 10-speed cassette at the back, controlled by a single Shimano CUES trigger shifter. There is no front derailleur, which means simpler shifting and fewer dropped chains on bumpy ground.

Q: How will my bike be delivered?

A: We deliver to mainland UK addresses (with tracking). Delivery options, costs and estimated times are shown at checkout and in our Shipping Policy.
