bigquotesI really like how the new linkage design works! The rear end just glides through the rough sections while feeling stable and planted. The seated climbing position is also really comfortable and feels really effiecient for a 170mm travel enduro rig. It has been an amazing opportunity getting to work with Polygon to help fine-tune the new Collosus to cope with the demands of Enduro World Series racing along side Matt Stuttard and Dan Wolfe.Brady Stone

bigquotesFrom the first ride on the IFS, I felt confident and like I was quickly get up to speed on the trail. This was the biggest travel enduro bike I've ridden and there was no compromise in the pedal ability for the downhill smash ability. Polygons refinements of this bike over the past season make me excited on the next IFS as I keep adding speed to my riding!Amy Morrison

bigquotesIt has been an amazing opportunity to help develop and fine tune another great enduro bike and to share this time with Dan Wolfe, Brady Stone and Josh Morris. The Collosus tracks the ground super well giving you great confidence in traction and manoeuvrability. The 170mm travel soaks up the rough and keeps on trucking. Ready for Enduro World Racing or just a casual spin at your local, I'm excited to see these bikes all over the world getting a thrashing.Matt Stuttard

When launching the N9, the location was an easy choice. Australia’s undisputed mountain biking capital - Tasmania. Threaded with rugged landscapes, from rainforests blanketed in moss, and terrain that ranges from granite to hero dirt.

bigquotesThis bike has been a long time in development with plenty of input from Polygon Factory Racing. I was lukcy enough to try the first prototype and knew instantly that this bike was special. The IFS linkage is a game changer. It makes light work of rough terrain and has been so confidence inspiring. I cannot wait to see what the public thinks of the new machineDan Wolfe

Joined by PFR team member, Brady Stone (NZ), local Tasmanian rider, Jack Marsh (AU) and Polygon Brand Manager, Serena Lisney. Plans were modified due to weather conditions and flight cancellations, but the team jumped in - clearing trails and rebuilding jumps. Operation Collosus was good to go!
