With the same soul as its sibling, the Sniper T features a lightweight carbon frame, 29” wheels, and a progressive XC trail geometry but this time with 120mm of travel. The extra 20mm of suspension gives the bike superb off-road speed up and down, but you get a slightly plusher ride. It is fast, fiery, and fun, a genuinely innovative XC trail bike… INTENSE style. - It’s all about geometry. Long, low, and slack is no longer just for the downhill crowd, it’s the ‘new normal’ for XC trail bikes too. Truly a game-changer. We believe that short-travel bikes should descend like their long-travel siblings, so we created an XC trail bike with an aggressive DH spirit with the Sniper XC. - We know that riding the Sniper will fill you with confidence. Climbing, descending, or cruising along… it does it all with powerful yet efficient ease. The way the Sniper covers the ground so quickly and effortlessly is inspiring, and it is nothing short of a revelation on the descents. - Our engineering team focused on optimized pedaling performance for the Sniper T, tweaking the shock tune to suit typical XC riding terrain. The suspension was designed for supple sensitivity on small bumps, mid-support for hard pedaling efficiency, and excellent progression to the end of the stroke. - What this means is that you get a supple and sensitive ride that initially absorbs small bumps, then seamlessly moves into a supportive mid-stroke platform (which helps to maintain ride height) and finally into a controlled ramp-up towards bottom-out. All this translates into a very predictable ride that offers plenty of support, can tackle anything, and gives endless grip in all situations.

With the Sniper T we have created a pure full-suspension cross-country trail bike with a true INTENSE spirit. Running on 29" Wheels and is supported by 120mm/120mm of suspensions.

JS stands for Jeff Steber (our founder and CEO); simply put, it is a sophisticated suspension system that uses two counter-rotating links to connect the front and rear triangles of the bike. The links are precisely placed to separate the pedaling and braking forces from the suspension performance. Every model in our range has its own personal and specific JS tune.

From the outside, the new Primer looks similar to previous years, but it is what's on the inside that matters. Full carbon fiber front and rear triangles that utilize our new optimized carbon lay-up for our Trail category. Titanium hardware, ISCG-05 tabs, threaded BB, Universal Derailleur Hanger, T-type compatibility, and a 148mm Boost quick-release rear axle. This 150mm/140mm travel Primer 29 trail bike is pure perfection. We’ve taken our classic Primer frame and tweaked it in all the right places to create the ultimate trail bike. 29” wheels, UDH, 150mm front travel, 140mm rear, and our JS Tuned Suspension design. Improved geometry with a steeper seat angle and longer reach. We’ve also strengthened specific areas of the frame to improve torsional stiffness, and with the help of FOX we’ve tuned the rear shock to perfection. Finding the balance of stiffness and flex is a fine art and for 2024 we’ve adjusted the carbon lay-up of the Primer to increase lateral stiffness, especially around the bottom bracket, whilst keeping it compliant horizontally for a comfortable ride feel. REVAMPED GEOMETRY The updated frame design introduces significant geometry enhancements aimed at boosting climbing performance and ergonomics. This has been achieved through a steeper seat tube angle, and longer reach and stack. VERSATILITY The Primer trail bike is the most versatile model in our range. With 140mm of rear travel and 150mm up front, we have designed a bike that is capable and balanced but also nimble and fun at the same time, giving you confidence on long, all-day rides, jumps, or laps in your local woods. FLIP CHIP ADJUSTMENT The Primer 29 has a 'Flip Chip' feature, allowing you to alter your bike's geometry between two positions. The High setting is best in technical terrain, while the Low is more suitable for flow and bike park-style riding. JS TUNED LINK We talk about JS suspension a lot here at INTENSE.

The new INTENSE M1 has 203mm (linear) / 212mm (progressive) of rear travel, 279 mixed wheels, and is built around a 6-link, high-pivot, 6061-T6 aluminum frame. The M1 is a race-proven winner. Designed, developed, and perfected by our engineers and the INTENSE Factory Racing team on the World Cup circuit to be the fastest downhill bike. The M1 Expert features Fox Performance suspension for smooth handling on rough terrains, TRP DH-R EVO brakes for reliable stopping power, and the SRAM GX drivetrain ensures seamless and efficient gear changes. During the initial development stages, the 6-link high pivot design allowed us to isolate, adjust and customize every element of the M1’s ride characteristics. Our goal was to design a bike that would excel in all DH conditions, on any track, and honor the name and racing pedigree of our original M1 frames that we produced in the 1990s. With the new M1 we’ve created a bike that can smash through the roughest terrain, generate speed, accelerate efficiently when pedaling and stay active under braking. HIGH PIVOT High-pivot bikes, especially in downhill applications, have proven to provide amazing performance and muster great race results. The rearward axle path of the M1 moves the rear wheel out of the way of trail obstacles, helping the bike maintain momentum and control. The position of the idler pulley reduces the effects of chain growth, eliminating pedal kickback, and further enhancing suspension and pedaling performance. ULTIMATE SET-UP The M1’s 6-Link suspension design comes with two shock mount positions, allowing you to choose between a Linear (203mm travel) or Progressive (212mm travel) setting. The full-size 56/56 headtube, with a 63º head angle, allows you to run a 0-10mm reach adjustment headset. These adjustments mean that you can set the bike up to suit your riding style, personal preferences, and track conditions. SRAM GX DH-7 DRIVE TRAIN The SRAM GX DH 7-speed features a streamlined design optimized for downhill racing, its robust construction ensures that it can withstand the rigors of intense riding. Offering consistent performance over time with the X-ACTUATION™ technology and easy maintenance, providing the rider with precision, durability, and ease of use. EASY TO WORK ON, A MECHANIC’S DREAM In response to the feedback from our race mechanics, we prioritized ease of maintenance when designing the M1. Notable features include externally routed cables for convenient access and standardized 6mm Hex wrench compatibility for all hardware except one collet bolt. There are three 'captured' washers in the linkage hardware, meaning they stay in place and don't fall to the ground when re-installing that pivot bolt after a muddy rebuild. The M1 uses high-end Enduro bearings in all links and features an easy-to-maintain and durable threaded BB.
