This is the bike for the rider looking to go a bit bigger but needs something on the more budget-friendly end of the scale. 

The perfect Goldilocks bike between the Process 134 and Process X, the Process 153 hits all the sweet spots. The 160/153mm front and rear suspension gives you unwavering reliability on tricky descents while still being an efficient climber. It’s spec’d with everything you need and nothing you don’t. Strong brakes, dependable suspension and grippy tires equal the perfect all-around package without crazy sticker shock.
