Superb suspension action
Comfortable and efficient ride quality
Excellent handling and stability
High price point
Component limitations (e.g., dropper post adjustment)
Minimalist components may not suit all riders
The ASR is the type of weapon that I’ve been lacking in my arsenal.
BikerumorConfidence-inspiring is not a phrase often used on XC race bikes, but it applies to the ASR.
Mountain Bike ActionThe ASR is blazing fast, nervy, an effort rewarding racehorse. It is amphetamine.

Once again, the ASR is pushing geometry and weight boundaries that match up perfectly with the trajectory of modern cross-country racecourses. Once again, the ASR is pushing geometry and weight boundaries that match up perfectly with the trajectory of modern cross-country racecourses.

Let’s be honest. There was a lengthy period of time when cross-country bikes just weren’t that cool. Same goes for XC racing. For a while, those bikes and those races drifted a little too far towards the roadie end of the cycling spectrum. Hallmark events in the mid 2010s such as the Leadville 100, Trans Alps, and just about any World Cup were primarily contested on smooth, fast tracks (or roads) where maximum efficiency towered above all else. It mattered little how well a bike or rider handled the gnar, only that there were no wasted watts.
Well-rounded skillset
Impressive balance between pedaling efficiency, traction, and comfort
Confident and comfortable ride when going downhill fast
3-position lock-out allows quick terrain adaptation
Flex-stay suspension design with linear leverage ratio
Ample room for two water bottles
Threaded BB
Clearance for up to 2.4" tires
Lightweight frame (1830g claimed)
Two-position dropper post lacks adjustability
No in-bike storage
Brakes could be more powerful
Stock 740mm bars too narrow
Expensive ($8,600 build)
Less suitable for non-race use compared to short travel trail bikes

After taking a decade off from the ASR model, Yeti brought it back. For me, the timing of its arrival couldn’t have been better as sloppy Pacific Northwest trails started to dry up from a long winter. With fast dirt and even faster rolling tires, my legs are still sore from chasing uphill PRs. Climbing aboard the ASR felt like being possessed. I couldn’t seem to ride this bike at my normal pace. Instead, I’d immediately find myself pedaling as fast as I could on my normal climbs. With the Maxxis Recon Race rear tire and snappy power delivery through the ASR’s frame, there was no reason to climb slowly.

Yeti are charging back into the XC race/trail scene after almost a decade away. Guy Kesteven has been getting his teeth into their radical slack steering and deep sag design to see how it compares with the best of the rest
Excellent traction without losing power pop
Race light but impressively rigid chassis
Super slack dynamic steering for the category
Shorter geometry is great for tighter, slipperier trails
Top spec analog RockShox plus Fox Factory dropper
Alloy wheels and cranks at a carbon price
Can pitch noticeably when braking or grunting
Shorter taller geometry reduces stability at speed
Tall seatpost restricts dropper space/size up options
Very busy front end cable and hose collection

Colorado-based Yeti Cycles is a brand with a rich racing history. In fact, the first production Yeti frame in 1985 was called the F.R.O., an…

After a nine-year hiatus, the ASR returns to take its place as Yeti's dedicated cross-country race bike.
Very competitive weight
Excellent grip and suspension performance
Well-rounded handling for a cross-country bike
Slightly softer ride feel works best with 3 position remote lockout
Narrow bar, underpowered brakes (even for an XC bike)
