PODIUM
THE UNFAIR ADVANTAGE

The Podium Team Issue 2026 proves that timeless engineering wisdom paired with cutting-edge materials and smart design thinking produces something genuinely special. Tipping the scales at just 775g (size M), this frameset claims the title of world's lightest production hardtail whilst maintaining the rigidity and longevity riders demand—all without compromising the weight savings that make modern cross-country racing possible.

The Podium Team Issue 2026 eliminates conventional compromises across handling dynamics, build quality, component specification, and value proposition. This achievement reflects intelligent frame engineering, premium material selection, and two decades of progressive mountain bike development—delivering a platform where performance, durability, and accessibility converge without sacrifice.
