Progressive, versatile & an all around shredder.
Rootdown - Paint Blem



Why we built this.
Accidents happen, and unfortunately these Rootdown frames have minor scratches on them. Have a look at the photos to see each unique small scratch. Other than a minor imperfection they are both in prime condition and ready to roll.
There isn't much a Rootdown hasn't done. Its made for all around hardtail shredding in all kinds of trail conditions. Its a versatile All-Mountain 29er hardtail featuring premium materials, detailed construction, and progressive geometry.
The Rootdown is a versitle trail bike eager to keep going mile after mile. With confidence inspiring geometry it is both surefooted and involving. It is our best selling hardtail by far with a cult following. The Series VI has been updated with post mount brake tabs, threaded BB and E.D. tube coating.
The Bike Shed
The Bike Shed is a place for custom, speciality or blemished complete bikes and frames. If a product is blemished, keep an eye out for photos and details in the description.
Each bike has been meticulously assembled with care and attention by one of our skilled mechanics. Just like all of us here at Chromag, they live and breathe bikes, so you can rest assured your ride has been built and inspected to the highest standard.
Each bike here is unique, whether the build kit or paint job, no two bikes in the shed are the same. Once they're gone, they're gone so be sure to check back often!

Sizing
If you're between sizes, it's a good idea to try to ride them both, either by hopping on a demo or stealing from a close friend. If that isn't an option, examine reach, stack and ETT numbers on your current bike and compare. If in any doubt, please get in touch and we'd be happy to chat about it with you.
