Yeti 2011 AS-R 5 Alloy
The Yeti AS-R 5 was a runaway success last year and for 2011 we have added a bunch of new colors to the palette, including neon lime. You gotta see it to appreciate it...
While there are many reasons to like the AS-R 5, the biggest is versatility. Long, gnarly rides? No problem. You wanna race a little cross country? This bike is light enough to help you stomp your lycra-clad friends on the uphill and then put more time into them on the downhill. Want to make is more capable on in rough terrain? Slap a 140mm travel fork on and have fun.
The secret of this bike is balance. We have engineered it to ride a bit stiffer in the mid-stroke of the travel so it has an aggressive, lively feel on the trail. The low bottom bracket and 68 degree head tube make sure the bike is controlled and predictable when you bring it up to speed and it carves turns extremely well -- due in part to the amazing stiffness of the frame.
