Selected as one of the best off-road touring bikes by the renowned blog Cyling About, the Taïga EXP is the dropbar version of the Taïga mountain bike. This makes it ideal for long-distance off-road tours and mixed terrain bikepacking expeditions. It was also the bike that led Cory Ostertag to first place at the 2022 BC Epic, and the same bike that helped Marie-Pierre Savard and Cory Ostertag set new record times (FKT) at the 2022 Log Driver’s Waltz for women and men respectively.
The Reynolds 725 frame is packed with useful features: adjustable rear sliding dropouts, seat stay opening for use with belt, compatible with 100mm suspension fork, compatible with dropper seat post. The carbon fork has internal cable routing for dynamo hub usage, and all the necessary mounts for your equipment.
A true ‘mullet’ setup with Gevenalle GX or Rival+Ratio Technology shifters controlling a 12-speed SRAM Eagle mountain drivetrain. Hunt XC Wide MTB wheels fitted with WTB Trail Boss 29″x2.25″ tires are fast and comfortable. The Ritchey Beacon 52cm wide handlebar gives enough space for a bulky handlebar bag, while providing excellent stability when the terrain is more demanding.
*Frameset comes with wheel axles, headset installed, seatpost collar and frame protectors.
*Rohloff option comes with the black Speedhub 500/14 A12 DB PM, 180mm rear rotor, the shifter and all the hardware for the hub installation. Option with Rohbox system and SRAM Rival shifters available.

ON THE MEDIA

“The Panorama Taïga EXP is a drop-bar mountain bike built up around a Reynolds 725 steel frame and carbon fork. Both the frame and fork are kitted out with all the mounting points we like to see, with multiple triple-pack mounts, downtube bosses, rack and fender mounts, and even a spot for a bolt-on top tube bag. The Taïga EXP screams versatility with sliding dropouts, a split seat stay for belt-drive systems, 100mm travel suspension-corrected geometry, dropper post routing, boost hub spacing, and internal dynamo routing on the fork.”

Awarded as one of the best all-terrain touring bikes.
“Here is a new steel off-roader that’s a great buy. The stats on this bike are great. Ther’s 29 x 2.6” tire clearance, a 20 inch climbing gear, a 52cm wide handlebar, and the ability to fit a Rohloff 14-speed gearbox hub and belt drivetrain.”

Named ”Favorite equipment for bikepacking
“Le CV du Taïga est parlant : un très robuste cadre en acier Reynolds 725, des ancrages nombreux et dispersés sur toute la monture, la possibilité de recevoir des pneus de 29 X 2.6 po, la compatibilité avec une fourche à suspension de 100 mm et une tige de selle ajustable. La géométrie du cadre est pensée confort et stabilité, quel que soit votre charge.
Panorama est la 1e compagnie de vélos certifiée carboneutre par Climate Neutral. C’est ce qu’on appelle aller au bout de ses idées en matière de protection de l’arrière-pays qu’on aime tant visiter.”
