From all day epics to technical singletrack, we’ve got you covered.
If you’re looking for one bike that does it all, look no further than the Instinct. We’ve designed a bike that’s capable of tackling technical trail riding but still allows you to push the pedals hard on the climbs. We’ve updated the geometry, frame features, and suspension kinematics to make sure you feel confident on the up’s, down’s, and everything in between. Trust your Instinct.
Total trail precision
Razor sharp handling and a buttery but efficient suspension setup means satisfying small bump compliance and addictive flickability. Hitting the sweet spot between big hit confidence and surgical levels of precision, it rewards the rider ready to ride more of everything, faster.
An Instinct for every rider
Embiggening or shrinking a frame isn’t enough. That’s why the Instinct comes in six distinctly sized frames with specific suspension kinematics and two wheel-size options. It’s the only way to ensure every element of the Instinct’s character gets fully realized for every rider.
The right setup for any trail
Total precision is yours on any trail with our RIDE-9 adjustment system and 2-position rear axle that allows for chainstay length adjustment. It’s everything you need to quickly arrive on the best setup for the trail ahead.

Geometry
This bike features the RIDE-9 chips that allow nine different positions to fine tune your geometry depend on your style and your type of riding. From steeper to slacker. We have put here the geometry chart for position 5 of the RIDE-9, the neutral position. But we know at BOSK that slacker is better so we put the geometry chart for the position 1 of the RIDE-9 who's the more slack. If you have any question about this kind of chips, contact us I'll be a pleasure to help you with that!
