Knolly's new Warden 170 MX is a slack, long-travel, MX wheeled beast built for freeride or downhill destruction!
Jun 2024 · Knolly Bikes
Similar to all of our recent releases, the Warden boasts the highly praised updated straight top tube design, is kitted out with Enduro bearings on all pivots, and features a unified rocker link to stiffen up the rear end..

Knolly has a new series of bikes out. I've been out on the Warden LT, and here to report on what it's like.
Stiff and precise aluminum frame
Snappy and agile handling in tight corners
Excellent Fox Float X2 shock and Fox 38 fork
Good build kit overall (XT brakes, RaceFace cockpit, Industry Nine wheels)
Effective climbing position with steep seat tube angle
Fun and playful character, especially on technical trails
Stock tires (Maxxis EXO+ MaxxTerra) inadequate for aggressive riding; multiple flats
Bike noisy out of the box (seatpost creak, cable rattle, front end creak)
Left crank fell off on third ride
Rear suspension not very progressive; bottomed out frequently
Short rear center and low stack height make bike feel smaller than reach suggests
Derailleur exploded prematurely; extra width of 157mm rear may contribute to clipping
Absence of a bash guard
