2014 Forme Alport 29.1 29er Mountain Bike RRP £799.99

Forme Bikes

Forme Bikes are proudly designed and developed in Derbyshire. Following observation of a clear gap in the market for British high quality aluminium bikes the range was launched with a small collection of 5 road bike models at key selling price points with immediate success in March 2010. The strength of Forme combined with the phenomenal consistent growth in cycling has allowed them to develop thier range to 40 models in less than 2 years.

Every Road and Mountain bike produced by Forme is tested by ex-professional cyclists on some of the most technical trails, steepest climbs and fastest descents the Peak District has to offer to create a product that can be understood by its rider. If you are familiar with the geography of the Peak District names such as Blackrocks, Thorpe, Axe Edge, Alport, Shining Cliff Woods etc will be well recognised and therefore the formula for selecting Forme model names will not come as a surprise to you.

Forme designed bikes are engineered to meet the demands of the British climate which, following many testing miles, can be pretty wet and grim. Key features often over looked by international competitors can be found on every bike within the range to ensure all your daily riding demands we are met.

2014 Forme Alport 29.1 29er Mountain Bike

SERIES OVERVIEW - The sport and recreational riders introduction to the big wheeled world of 29" wheel hardtail mountain bikes. Boasting versatility and efficiency the Alport allows you to roll over rocks and climb hills with much better momentum. An easier roll equals a faster ride.

Working alongside Kinesis using their KSL superlight tubing Forme have developed an innovative race 29er that is suitable for national level XC races as well as a super light trails bike offering precise accuracy on descents and snappy acceleration on the climbs. By modifying the geometry and seat tube shape we have ensured the chain stays are as short as possible without sacrificing clearance and without having to resort to a kinked seat tube.
