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.
Playful and agile handling on tight, technical trails
Stiff and precise aluminum chassis
Excellent suspension components (Fox 38, Float X2)
Well-thought-out build kit overall
Fun and sporty suspension feel
Great climbing position with steep seat tube angle
Stock tires (Maxxis EXO+ MaxxTerra) inadequate; frequent flats
Noisy initially (seatpost creak, cable rattle, front end creak)
Left crank fell off during test
Frame feels compact for its travel; geometry feels dated
Short chainstays require conscious weight shifting at speed
Suspension not progressive enough; bottoms out easily
Bushing friction in linkage initially
Derailleur exploded prematurely; 157mm rear end may contribute
No bash guard included
