Deviate Claymore FAQ
Yes, the bike and all the parts arrive 90% assembled and require a very minimal assembly.
We suggest around 30% for most riders, but this will vary depending on terrain and personal preference.
No - a standard 126 link chain will work with even a 12 speed Shimano or Sram set-up.
ZS44/28.6 upper and a ZS56/40 lower headset cup.
Absolutely. We have two lower ISCG-05 tabs which allow the use of a lower guide/bash.
Yes! Just select the MX wheel size option.
We suggest a 170-180mm fork with a 44mm offset. A 51mm offset is compatible and will lead to a slightly more lively steering feel. We do not recommend triple clamp or dual crown forks with the Claymore.
The Claymore will work with most coil or air shocks on the market - we recommend a mid-mid initial tune. We can’t guarantee that a specific shock will have clearance. The shocks available on our online store are all compatible. Please note that shocks with rear rebound adjustment may be problematic to adjust.
We’ve designed The Claymore to run 2.6” tires.

The Claymore
"High Pivot Heaven" - Pinkbike's Field Test
"The unique kinematics of a high pivot point design maintains chassis stability and geometry under heavy braking. This allows our designers to achieve stability and straight line speed while maintaining sensible geometry."
Designed to win
Speed without sacrifice
The design brief was to create an enduro bike capable of winning on the toughest of enduro stages, with pedal performance to match a trail bike and an element of playfulness for those days when you’re not between the tape.
