Following up their recent introduction of a carbon fiber Carbine full suspension bike, Intense Cycles’ European distributor just got this first version of the new Hard Eddie carbon fiber 29er hardtail. The frame was finished just a couple days before the show but the details must’ve got stuck in customs. All they were really able to tell us was it’ll be available in March, the frame is about 1,050 to 1,100 grams with replaceable dropouts for XC oriented axle options, including singlespeed. MSRP should be about $1,800. Click through for more photos…

The dropouts bolt on. Intense will offer standard QR and a few 135 and 142 options along with a singlespeed version.

Looks like it came out of the Specialized molds…

Good looking bike, but the head tube looks bare, it’s seriously in need of a Intense badge.
