Yeti brought out a few prototypes at Sea Otter this year that needless to say turned a few heads.

Yeti 303R-SS, one of three prototypes spotted at Sea Otter
303R-SS
Designed for aggressive trail riding, slopestyle, and gravity bent all-mountain. The rate on this bike has been designed to be stiffer so it holds the rider up in g-outs, berms, and really flowing terrain. The stiffer overall rate also makes it more difficult to bottom-out.
- Travel: 5.4”
- Projected Weight: 7.5 lbs (Fox DHX air)
- Head Angle: 68 degrees (32 Float / 140) 66.3 degrees (36 Float / 160)
- Chainstay: 16.5”
- BB: 13”
303 R DH
A less expensive DH bike that uses a single pivot coupled with our 303 technology. By utilizing a horizontal linear rail we are able to create a rate similar to the 303 DH. The single pivot design has a different wheel path than the 303 DH but we were able to simplify the design and lighten up the frame significantly.
- Travel: 8.5”
- Projected Weight: 10 lbs
- Head Angle: 64.5 – 65.5
- Chainstay: 17.25”
- Projected price: $2499
