Knolly’s Fugitive 140 gets a full redesign with a straight top tube, updated geometry, and refined suspension. We test its all-mountain performance.
Oct 2024 · Sam James
The new Knolly Fugitive blends mid-travel and a solid build spec for all-around trail bike fun, but how does it perform?
Fits long-travel droppers
Pivots now use bearings throughout
Plush/supple suspension
Decent spec package for the money
Climbs like an enduro bike, descends like a trail bike
Not as refined as other high-performance trail bikes
Front triangle lacks proper room for bottle and tool mount
Magura brakes are hard to set up and lack power
Apr 2024

Apr 2024 · Knolly Bikes
The new Fugitive receives updated geometry and undergoes the straight top tube treatment.
Aug 2021 · Jason_Schroeder
The established climbing machine elevates its well-rounded abilities with key updates that improve descending abilities.
Increased reach and wheelbase improves composure and stability descending
FOX suspension provides bottomless ride for aggressive riding
Incredibly planted and efficient pedaling platform
Low bottom bracket leads to many pedal strikes
29x2.3 Maxxis tires are too narrow for rowdy descents
Lacks playful, trail bike demeanor
Jun 2021 · Travis Engel
The Knolly Fugitive combines eager pedaling with a ruthless appetite for speed. It’s never too much, or too little bike for the occasion.
Efficient, rewarding pedaler
Highly capable for its travel and geometry
Unique combination of stability and maneuverability
Not cheap for an aluminum bike
Not as supple as other bikes around 140mm of travel
Apr 2021 · Steve Fisher
