 Superior Bikes come out of the mountains in the Czech Republic, and they are now available in Australia via BikesOnline.

With over 30 years making bikes, Superior bikes have had a recent push into the elite cross-country mountain bike market, but not without ensuring that a strong foundation remains in a hardtail line up.

Superior Bikes have a range of carbon and alloy hardtails mountain bikes, starting at $1999 and offering just about everything you would expect. This includes 29” wheels, boost through axles, wide range 12-speed gearing and great ergonomics. The Superior XP range clearly has a cross-country intent, and is therefore built around 100mm travel forks and moderate geometry for cross country riding and racing.

I’ve got the XP 919 ($1999) on test, which is an alloy frame with a Shimano 12-speed group set and brakes, Rock Shox 100mm fork and a smart cockpit arrangement.
