Ranger Ti SRAM XX Transmission

Essentially, the Ranger Ti is a copy of the Ranger, but with a custom titanium front triangle. Same geometry, kinematic and specifications, but with a whole new ride feel.

Because Ti is fly! But in all seriousness, Titanium brings a whole host of unique properties when it comes to ride feel on trail. Most noticeably, the frame material soaks up more vibrations than other frame materials. What does this mean? The Ranger Ti will have a noticeably smooth and damped ride feel. Its like riding on a cloud! 

Thought you would never ask! Beyond using the highest quality titanium tubes found on other Revel models, we use the latest titanium 3D printing technology connect the frame into a unified work of functional art. This allows us to bring in techniques learned from a decade of carbon and titanium engineering and manufacturing.

We found that the carbon rear end gave the best balance of stiffness and weight. The carbon rear end allowed us to keep the chassis stiffness intact, and that recognizable Ranger personality alive.

We recommend using some rubbing alcohol and a Scotch-Brite pad and scrubbing gently in a "shoe-shine" motion (one direction or back and forth, not circular), then wiping down and finishing with a light coat of furniture polish like Pledge. This should work for both oxidation and light scratches. Please avoid scrubbing to the sand blasted areas of the frame/logos as it may disrupt and create a uneven finish.

All the bottles! Size M-XL frames come with three bottle mounting locations. Size S comes with two mounting locations. Meaning, you can carry up to three bottles for those mega missions. Please note that max bottle sizes will vary per frame size.

Yes! Medium, Large and Extra Large Ranger Ti include dedicated utility mounts on the underside of the top tube. Stash tools, tubes or anything else your heart desires.

We did not the design the Ranger Ti to be ridden as a mullet so we don't recommend it.

Short answer: Yes! Long answer: Higher anti-squat numbers paired with CBF activeness over technical terrain, the Ranger has a perfect balance of efficiency and traction. The suspension resists pedal bob, all while staying open and active to allow for maximum traction on the climb.

Short answer: Yes! Long answer: The new geometry paired with the new kinematic makes this bike absolutely incredible on the descent. More-capable geometry, more sat-in feel, more travel, lower center of gravity, refined kinematic for better trail feel... The list goes on! 

We want to make selecting the right size frame as easy as possible. For the Ranger Ti, we recommend rider heights to ride the below frame sizes:

Small: 5'1"-5'6" 
Medium: 5'5"-5'10"
Large: 5'9"-6'1"
X-Large: 6'1"-6'5"

Yes! You can run up to 140mm and as low as 120mm of fork travel on the Ranger. Please note that changing the fork travel will modify geometry and the ride feel of the bike as the Ranger Ti was specifically designed around a 130mm fork.

Yes! The Ranger can fit a long list of piggyback shocks available aftermarket. When installing a piggyback shock, the reservoir must be rotated downward towards the downtube. While this orientation does allow for piggyback fitment within the frame, it does reduce bottle clearance. The same goes for the SIDLuxe Flight Attendant if you choose to upgrade.

*Please note that you must purchase a shock with the correct tune. An incorrect tune will result in less-than-ideal suspension performance and ride feel. Please contact customer service if you are evaluating an aftermarket shock.

Yes and no. Yes, you can purchase any aftermarket shock and install it on the Ranger Ti and it will functionally work. The most important part is the shock tune. An incorrect tune will result in inadequate suspension performance and ride feel. To get the most out of your Ranger TI, please ensure the shock has a suitable tune for the Ranger Ti V3.

Please contact customer service if you are evaluating an aftermarket shock.

The Ranger Ti was designed around 30% rear sag. If you would like a firmer feel, you can go as low as 25% sag. Please refer to the fork manufacture's recommendation for fork sag. We personally like 25% fork sag.

The Ranger Ti V3 offers SRAM UDH (Universal Derailleur Hanger) compatibility, so replacement hangers are easier to find and your bike's drivetrain is more future-proof against manufacturer updates down the line.

Designed around modern drivetrains, the baseline for the Ranger Ti's chain length is set for a 32T chainring paired with a 10-52T cassette. for this configuration, the below chain lengths are required:

Small: 116L
Medium: 116L
Large: 116L
X-Large: 118L

To maximize the performance of the Sram Eagle Transmission, you must use the below setup positions while installing a new derailleur:

Setup Position: B
Setup Cog: 7 (Red)

The Ranger TI was designed with ISCG05 upper mounts. Meaning, you can run an aftermarket chain guide, but you cannot run an aftermarket bashguard. The new SRAM transmission cranks have built in bashguards to keep your chainring fresh.

The Ranger Ti is equipped with 180mm post mounts. Meaning, the minimum brake rotor size that can be used on the Ranger Ti is a 180mm rear rotor. For the front rotor, please refer the fork manufacture requirements.

The maximum brake rotor size that can be used on the Ranger Ti is a 223mm rear rotor. For the front rotor, please refer the fork manufacture requirements.

The Ranger Ti pairs a low seat tube height with deep insertion depth. What does this mean? You can run very long dropper length. Please note all dropper post manufactures require different insertion limits. The below maximum frame insertion guidelines can be a good starting point: 

Small: 330mm (150~180mm drop recommended)
Medium: 335mm (180~210mm drop recommended)
Large: 340mm (210~240mm drop recommended)
X-Large: 340mm (240mm+ drop recommended)

The Ranger Ti was designed to fit a 29x2.6 rear tire. Anything larger would not be recommended. For the front tire, please refer to the fork manufacture's maximum tire spec.
