Whether you need more comfort to go long, more traction to push beyond or more give to take on the tech - Kingpin is the maintenance-free, lightweight answer to your prayers.


Load Up. Roll Out.
With plentiful gear and waterbottle mounts on the frame and fork, Topstone Carbon is ready to load up and go long.

Corner like a Boss
Rail through the rough and come out smiling. Led by our OutFront steering geometry, the Topstone Carbon offers up handling that's serenely stable in the chop, and light & nimble everywhere else.
