Yeti ASR

About the New Yeti ASR

Who is the ASR for?

The ASR is built for winning cross-country mountain biking races. It’s designed to shave every possible second off the clock.

Since cross-country racing has moved from mostly spandex-and-gravel to including pretty intense singletrack including jumps, obstacles and chest-high drops, that means this also needs to be a capable mountain bike with a great suspension and frame. The ASR has geometry that holds its own on fast descents and a highly tuned suspension so you can lead the pack from start to finish.

What makes it special?

This is the lightest full-suspension bike Yeti has ever made. The ASR brings back Yeti’s flex-stay suspension design, refined with over two decades of carbon expertise. It also has an ultra-light frame design optimized so that whatever was not needed, was left out. The result is a 115 mm travel bike with incredible small-bump sensitivity, traction, and efficiency for the majority of the trail, that won't hesitate when faced with technical features.

Frame options

Like other Yeti bikes, the SB120 comes in two frame options: Turq, and C series. Both are advanced carbon frames but there are some differences.

The TURQ Series is Yeti’s premium carbon layup. It's the lightest, stiffest, and tuned for the best ride feel.

The C Series is a smidge heavier carbon layup with the same geometry and suspension design. It's the more affordable option and a still a very high quality frame.

Weight

We'll say it again, the ASR is the lightest full-suspension bike Yeti has ever produced. Depending on the build, complete weights start at just under 23 lbs / 10.4 kg. Even the more accessible C-Series builds stay competitive at around 26 lbs / 11.8 kg. A TURQ frame weighs in at only about 4 lbs / 1.8 kg on its own! Exact weights will vary by size, of course.
