Just taking a glimpse at the side profile of the 329 gives you a good idea of what it's all about. A 200mm front & rear travel chassis with 29" wheels is as big as DH bikes get (for now) - Combine these criteria with the World Cup proven foundations of the 327 and you get one mean mother of a rig that can annihilate anything in its path.
The maxed-out wheel circumference and diameter noticeably increases flat out speed whilst simultaneously making shorter work of skipping over limb-sized logs and roots. The optimised through-the-downtube shock placement heightens rapid bump control and big hit absorption, and the single pivot rear stay is built to last.
The 329 Factory features a 250mm Fox Float X2 Factory Kashima shock allowing 200mm of ultra-plush rear travel, matched with a 200mm Fox 40 Factory Kashima fork to track the harshest lines on the mountainside. The downhill specific SRAM XO1 DH 7-speed drivetrain is compact with fundamental DH gearing (11-24T), while the sharp Shimano Saint 4-pot brakes paired with grippy Magic Mary SuperGravity tyres let you hold your speed till the very last second. Stans Flow MKIII / Hope Pro4 wheels wrap up the chassis nicely with standard 12x150 / 20x110mm axles, and a Renthal FatBar Carbon V2 / Integra Stem cockpit adds a little extra spice to the front end.
If the 329 is a bit too much meat to chew, the 327 may be for you - Rest assured it's still a monster.
