The DMR SLED full suspension enduro mountain bike frame is our new 27.5 160mm all-mountain ripper.
Angles which beg to descend and suspension that’s happy to climb.
Durability which gives confidence on the biggest of hucks with a weight that will allow the most epic of adventures.
The SLED captures the very essence of what Mountain Biking is for us at DMR.

Review Submission by Hans - June 2020
"I built up my Sled about a year ago and it’s been an insanely fun bike. It feels super responsive in turns and absolutely blasts down trails, but it still has you covered when you land a bit sideways. Super whippy and manoeuvrable with how short its rear-end is and is just always such a blast to ride, like riding a hardtail that grips the corners, perfect for the trails up in Alaska!"
PINKBIKE - REVIEW
"The Sled is a bike you can feel immediately at home on."
"It is stiff and bulletproof and is fun to ride."
"It’s a bike that lets you really nail fast and swooping trails."

WIDE OPEN MAG - FIRST RIDE REVIEW
"The Sled is a properly good descender. It’s fast, it’s stable and it brings a good mix of stability at speed and good cornering. If you’re out riding steep, natural, technical trails every weekend then I reckon you’ll love it. If you’re at Bike Park Wales, the Forest of Dean or Windhill then it’s going to do you proud."
"DMR have done their homework…The link works really well…allowing the bike to track the ground nicely."

SINGLETRACK - DMR SLED REVIEW
"As for blasting around flowy machine-built trails and launching doubles and drops, there is no doubt that the SLED is an absolute scorcher of a trail bike."
"Along with those big ape-hanger bars and short stem, the SLED is a bike that relishes in being leant over hard through big berms, before being pumped and rolled through the types of rhythm sections that are becoming more common on new-school machine-built trails."
"The SLED frame is mega beefy and designed to last a very long time."

IMB magazine - REVIEW
"Exceptionally stable, calm and capable, this may be more bike than many of us need. However when it climbs and sprints so well, it shows itself as a great all-rounder with a desire to go dangerously fast."

PINKBIKE - Developing the DMR SLED
"The introduction of the SLED is an interesting move for a brand that, despite the introduction of the BOLT full suspension bike a number of years back, is still more well known for their steel hardtail frames and pedal designs. To find out more about the development process of the DMR SLED we spoke with the team behind the bike."

RIDE IT OUT - DMR SLED
"The DMR boys have been developing the SLED for 2 years and it’s fair to say they have gone long, slack and low with their 275 full susser..."
"...It’s based around DMR’s own virtual pivot ‘Orbit Link’ and they say this will offer superb climbing and descending with virtually no pedal feedback."
