A fun-loving, aggressive 29er that has its compromises but makes up for them in other areas
Great frame geometry for descending
The FOURby4 suspension eats up bumps and keeps the bike planted
Frame details are well thought out and should help longevity
A higher progression rate would help the bike maintain shape on bigger impacts
Seat angle is a little slack
Not the prettiest

On first inspection, the combination of the Fugitive LT’s build and mid-length travel might seem a little off. However, once things get moving, the bike’s feedback puts everything into perspective. The Code R brakes and Fox 36 allude to the bike's charging capabilities, while the 135mm of rear travel and Fourby4 linkage deliver a lively and responsive interpretation of the trail. With an uncanny ability to carry speed, a low bottom bracket that provides stability in the corners and consistently reactive ride feedback, the Fugitive LT is the epitome of less is more.

Review: Knolly Fugitive LT. A high-performance aluminum mountain bike from a boutique B.C. brand
Sep 2019 · Steve Fisher
Knolly's Fugitive LT is an ideal choice for one-bike riders, offering tons of versatility and solid ride characteristics that can tame any trail network.
May 2019 · Mike Levy
It's a lot of fork for the Fugitive, and I'd probably go with less travel up front if I spec'd my version of the bike, but it was also appreciated here in Squamish where things are steep and steeper.
Extremely stout-feeling bike
Active suspension means comfort and traction
More agile than an all-mountain bike, more solid than a trail bike
A bit of calf rub on the suspension linkage
Active suspension means that you might use the pedal assist
On the heavy side for a 135mm bike.

This bike hits above its travel, climbs as well as it descends and is comfortable in nearly any situation.

Knolly built the Fugitive LT to punched above its weight class, featuring 135mm of travel, the Fugitive LT is a bike designed to hit the trails as hard
