Discovery Pro SID SL bike is available in many sizes such as Extra small , Small , Medium , Large and Extra large .
Dean Mountain bike Discovery Pro SID SL can be found in one single color which is Satin.
This bike is equiped with IRC tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Sun Rims O-lite, 28-hole/32-hole. Dean equiped this exact model with Shimano XTR V-Brake brakes, Shimano XTR levers braking system and Front: Ringle Son of Bubba, Rear: Ringle SuperDuper 8 hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dean used 3Al/2.5V titanium material for the frame. Rhino high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Discovery Pro SID SL to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Dean Aluminum.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano XTR M952 is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-7700 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dean, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano XTR RapidFire SL gear shift levers.
