Characteristics

Our KATO is a fast, agile hardtail mountain bike that climbs uphill efficiently. The frame has been completely redesigned, with internally routed cables and a fresh design. But one thing has remained the same: The KATO is simply fun! With 100mm of travel and extremely low-maintenance components, it is the perfect entry-level mountain bike, available in many different versions: with single, double or triple drive and 27.5 or 29 inch wheels, in many great colors - and all this at a really attractive price.

The illustration above is an example. We reserve the right, as long as the type, suitability and purpose of the bike are not reduced, to replace individual parts with components of the same or higher quality, so that the bike is delivered differently. The use of other components is currently mainly caused by delivery problems due to the Corona pandemic.
