Summary

The Knolly Chilcotin is a highly capable enduro bike, praised for its aggressive geometry and updated suspension kinematics that enhance pedaling dynamics and trail performance. It offers a plush ride on rough trails, excellent technical climbing prowess, and predictable handling in corners. However, some riders note its heavier feel uphill and the need for careful setup to optimize its descending characteristics.

Pros
  • Aggressive geometry suitable for Enduro riders

  • Updated suspension kinematics for improved pedaling dynamics

  • Plush feeling on rough trails

  • Excellent technical climbing prowess

  • Predictable and wide arc in corners

Cons
  • Heavier feel when pedaling uphill

  • Active suspension requires more work over rocks at slow speeds

  • Setup can be challenging and requires experimentation

Key Quotes
Knolly has massaged the Chilcotin into an overall more aggressive bike, making it the obvious choice within their lineup for Enduro riders.

The Knolly Couchcotin is one of the most plush feeling bikes I've ever strapped myself to.
NSMB logoNSMB
When set up correctly it handles fast rough trails unbelievably well. In its element, it's one of the easiest bikes I've ridden in a long time through rough sections of trail.

Review: Knolly Chilcotin 155

Oct 2025 · Robert Johnston

The Chilcotin 155 is Knolly’s do-it-all 29er, designed to excel on techy climbs and descents alike. How did it fare in our long-term review?

Knolly Chilcotin 155 long term review

Jun 2024

Knolly's full 29er Enduro bike takes it's time going uphill but shreds the downhills like no other.

Highs
  • Extremely plush and chatter-erasing suspension

  • Excellent uphill traction

  • Cornering is predictable and secure

  • Very quiet operation

  • Great brakes (Shimano Deore M6100)

  • Easy to clean frame

Lows
  • Heavy (36.6 lbs)

  • Suspension feels heavy and less energetic on slower, technical climbs

  • Shifting performance of Deore drivetrain is unexciting

  • Not as lively as some competitors in corners

Review: Knolly Chilcotin 170 - They Haven't Just Straightened the Top Tube

Apr 2024 · Henry Quinney

The Chilcotin rides (and looks) better than ever, but it's not without its quirks.

Highs
  • Excellent tracking with little feedback through your feet

  • Balanced geometry

  • Ultra long seatpost insertion

  • Muted and calm ride through fast chundery trails

  • Will hunt out grip on technical climbs

Lows
  • It felt too progressive for me when riding with the air shock

  • Punishes rear wheels on square edges

  • Not particularly snappy under accelerations

  • Spec could be more suited to the bike's capabilities

The Beta Tests: Knolly Chilcotin 167 Dawn Patrol

Mar 2021 · Nicole Formosa

The Knolly Chilcotin 167 was built to hold up to the worst (and best) that BC has to offer, and for riders who expect nothing less.

Highs
  • Unmatched stability -Frame and hardware are built to last -Good value -Respectable climber for its weight and travel

Lows
  • May be too much bike for some -Not the all-rounder some enduro 29ers are
