From fast-paced competition to slow-burning exploration, Terra strikes the perfect balance between performance and versatility. It’s light, capable, and finely tuned for whatever path you choose.

What makes the new Terra unique?

GEOMETRY AND FRAME: Built to Ride Outside the Lines

At the heart of Terra lies a geometry that’s been refined for control and comfort across all terrain. A longer reach paired with a shorter stem ensures quick, confident handling, while a stretched wheelbase improves stability when the road turns rough or loose. Additionally, size-specific fork trail, means that you get balanced, intuitive steering across every frame size.

Tire clearance of up to 50C (or 45C with mudguards) opens the door to a wide range of tire setups—from fast-rolling race rubber to wide, grippy treads for unpredictable conditions.

The OMR carbon frame and fork feature a layup engineered to filter out trail buzz and chatter. The result is a smoother, more composed ride that keeps you fresher for longer. Key comfort features—like the slim top tube, compact rear triangle, and cutouts in the fork and stays—are designed to work together with the seatpost to absorb vibration without dulling the ride feel. And with dropper post compatibility, Terra doesn’t just go the distance—it descends with confidence, too.

With secure points on the seat tube, top tube, downtube, and fork, you can attach frame bags, bottles, and cages exactly where you need them. There are integrated front and rear fender mounts as well, letting you adapt the bike to any season or condition—perfect for training rides in wet weather or fully loaded missions across muddy tracks.

At the core of Terra’s utility is the updated LOCKR XXL in-frame storage system. Now with 35% more volume, it provides internal space for tools, snacks, or spare layers—all stowed out of sight but easily within reach. It’s a discreet and practical solution that reflects Terra’s long distance capability.
