Bold Linkin LTD Carbon Mountain Bike Frame 2022 - Black
LINKIN - THE TRAILBIKE WITH THE EXTRA PORTION OF RESERVE.
The BOLD LINKIN is the pinnacle of innovation, focussed on technical and estethic details to emphazise its industry leading innovation and design. Created by passionate bikers and engineered for those wanting a high-end experience of technology and design.
Frame stiffness, lowest center of gravity and optimum shock performance are the key benefits to our Internal Suspension Technology. The condition of the rear shock has a significant impact on suspension performance. The shock is always protected from dirt, water and crashes to ensure it is functioning at its best.
With the shock placed internally, we are able to design an ultra compact linkage system for low weight and high stiffness. The linkage is directly attached to the shock and mounted to an axle inside the frame, meaning the suspension pivots no longer have to be constructed around the frame.
The integration concept features a clever storage solution for tools inside the frame which is easily accessible by opening the downtube cover. The kit includes a spare tube, mini pump, tire levers and a spot for chain quick links to save your day, in case of a flat tire.
Having the ability to tune the bottom bracket height and head angle allows you to optimize the geometry and handling for you and your trails. With the Flip-Chip on the Bold VarioTec you can change the bottom bracket height by 6.3 mm giving the LINKIN frame the availability to be customized off-the-shelf.
SYNCROS COCKPIT WITH FULLY INTEGRATED CABLES //
The premium bar of choice features an integrated bar and stem concept by Syncros, now also allowing for the integration of cables on the front of the bike.
SAVE THE DAY KIT //
The integration concept features a clever storage solution for tools inside the frame which is easily accessible by opening the downtube cover. The kit includes a spare tube, mini pump, tire levers and a spot for chain quick links to save your day, in case of a flat tire.
MULTI TOOL //
Accidents will and do happen. To get you back on the trail fast, the Syncros MATCHBOX SL-CT Multi-Tool is hidden inside the frame covering most emergencies. There for when you unfortunately need it.
REAR AXLE TOOL //
The bike is equipped with a rear axle tool which features a T25, T30 and a 6 allen key all in one. With these three options you can adjust all pivot hardware and nearly everything else there is to adjust on the bicycle
CHAIN MANAGEMENT //
The bike also features a chain management with an upper chainstay & seatstay protection and a chain guide to protect your bike and keep things nice and
quiet.
DROPPER POST //
Incredible dropper post compatibility and unlimited positioning possibilities thanks to the horizontal layout of the rear shock in combination with the Internal Suspension Technology. Meaning a 200mm travel dropper coupled with a slammed seat position is no problem for the LINKIN
PROGRESSIVE GEOMETRY //
Progressive geometry in combination with the innovative Internal Suspension Technology brings the perfect mix of balance and control to the LINKIN.
LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY //
The shock is mounted in the lowest possible position inside the front triangle thanks to this design. This central and low mounting point for the shock, rocker link and pivot, but also the bottle cage lead to a very low center of mass, giving superb handling capabilities.

Ready to ride
Every bike from Start Fitness is fully checked & assembled before despatch and will arrive, almost, ready to ride. Each bike is assembled by one of our CyTech accredited mechanics and then packed into one of our custom boxes.This process has a lead time of 5-7 working days. Unfortunately during peak times this may be slightly delayed. We will however, aim to despatch your bike as quickly as possible. Minimal assembly, with basic tools, is required before you can ride. Assembly tools are not usually included. Please note: Some bikes are not supplied with pedals. Manufacturers don’t know if you want flat or clipless pedals - rather than send the bike with the wrong type, they leave the choice for you to make.
Making sure you are home
Once fully checked and boxed, we will contact you to book a delivery date. Our bikes are despatched on a next working day service (excludes weekends & bank holidays) for UK mainland orders, or a two day service to Northern Ireland and outlying Scottish areas. European bike deliveries usually take approximately one week.Taking Delivery
Any mechanical or cosmetic issues need to be reported to us within one week of the delivery date. If you do not plan on using the bike straight away, we advise that you remove it from the box and check it over ASAP as we cannot be responsible for any reported issues (other than standard warranty issues) later than one week from the date that the bicycle was delivered.First Service
After a few weeks of riding (we recommend around 6-8 weeks, regardless of how much the bike has been used), a new bike will need a service to make final adjustments and to re-check all nuts and bolts. This is necessary as the bike goes through a ‘bedding in’ phase, after which, final adjustment may be necessary. We recommend that this is carried out by a CyTech qualified mechanic.It is important to have these checks carried out to prevent any avoidable problems which may not be covered by warranty and to ensure the smooth running of your bicycle. If you’re local to us, we’re able to offer this first service free of charge* at our Newcastle store (NE1 6JE). You’ll just need to call our workshop on 0191 917 3825 to book your service in, and don’t forget to bring your proof of purchase when you drop the bike off with us.
If you’ve had the bike delivered, it will be your responsibility to ensure a first service is carried out at a trusted bike shop local to you, preferably by a Cytech certified mechanic. Start Fitness are unfortunately not able to cover any costs associated with this service if carried out by another store.
*Please note that this complimentary check-over does not include any labour to replace worn parts or to fit new accessories. All bikes should be delivered to us in a clean and serviceable condition, or a £15 cleaning charge will be payable.
Bike Servicing
Bicycles need to be serviced regularly, as a guideline we would advise on at least one full service per year and/or a standard service twice a year. If the bike is used regularly in adverse conditions, more regular servicing may be required.
