MX Setup on the Yalla!! V2 – The Question we got asked most


Hello Reader,

It’s been a couple of weeks since we launched the new Yalla!! V2 – and we’re stoked about all the messages and positive feedback we’ve received since.

By far the most common question has been about mullet compatibility: Can I run a 27.5” rear wheel on the new Yalla!! V2? What are the benefits? And what exactly do I need?

In short: Yes, you can. And since so many of you asked, here’s a quick summary of everything you need to know about the MX setup:

Who is the MX setup for?
Smaller riders can benefit from the smaller rear wheel – especially in steep terrain or on big hits, where it offers noticeably more clearance and freedom of movement behind the saddle. But anyone who likes to enter corners late and aggressively will also appreciate the more agile handling that comes with the smaller rear wheel.

How does it work?
We’ve added more clearance in key areas of the Yalla!! V2 frame, so all sizes now work seamlessly with our existing MX Lower Shock Mount. This mount slightly raises the bottom bracket to compensate for the smaller rear wheel – keeping the proven geometry intact.

What do I need?
All you need to run the Yalla!! V2 in an MX setup is the MX Lower Shock Mount and a 27.5” rear wheel. Swapping the shock mount is a quick and simple process.

Find the MX Lower Shock Mount in our shop.

If you're ordering a rolling chassis, you can configure it directly as an MX setup – we’ll ship it with the correct mount already installed.

You’ll find everything else you need to know about the Yalla!! V2 on this page.

Still have questions? Just reply to this email or book a consultation – either online or in person at our showroom.

As always – have fun out there, and thanks for the support!

Cheers

Hello Reader, On a quiet solo ride the other day, the air was crisp, the trails were covered in leaves, and the woods had that calm, golden glow that only autumn brings. Conditions like that sometimes put me in a reflective mood – the kind where flow mixes with emotion, sneaking in between the corners and the climbs. I found myself thinking about the Madonna – the bike I was on – and the role it has played in our story, and in so many of yours. From the very beginning, it’s been the bike at...

Hello Reader, It sneaks up on us every year: one week you’re still in summer mode, the next the mornings feel crisp, the trails are covered in leaves, and autumn has made itself at home. (At least here in Germany …no need to rub it in with your summer shots from down under 😉) Not that we mind: golden light, tacky dirt, and a good reason to pull out the warmer riding gear all have their charm. And if the weather really doesn’t play along, in this newsletter there’s plenty to keep the stoke...
