Privateer's "trail bike" is not for the faint of heart nor the weak of limb
Jul 2024 · Matt Beer
The 141 is a burly trail bike that was designed with reliability in mind.
Ability to run either rear wheel size or shock type
Robust, straightforward hardware
Excellent rear wheel tracking
On the heavy side for a trail bike
Drivetrain can impose some undesired feedback at the rear wheel
Not UDH compatible

Built for Speed, Privateer, amateur professional, racing for Team Mom and Dad—call it what you will but the idea is the same. Outside of pro mountain biking’s select upper echelon of well-paid, well-supported athletes, many if not most competitors are barely scraping by. This often means bumming rides to races, packing extra bodies into hotel rooms and cashing in favors when your gear needs servicing or replacement.

Companies like Privateer that push design outside the norm are favorites of ours, especially if it’s in the name of racing.

The Privateer 141 brings everything we liked about the 161 but puts it in a more trail friendly package. While it may not be the prettiest or lightest of bikes out there the Privateer 141’s user friendliness and excellent kit list, combined with its forward-thinking geometry result in a bike that's as versatile as it is fun, making it one of the best trail mountain bikes you can buy. Is this the ultimate trail bike?

From the park to the podium, the Privateer 141 does it all
Nov 2021 · Alan Muldoon
Privateer 141 SLX/XT review: UK-designed trail bike promises to bring same big sizing and aggressive geometry concept as its 161.
Commanding riding position
Too much chain slap
