Root Titanium Hardtail

The Sanitas Root hardtail is handcrafted using hand-selected, size-specific, cold-worked 3/2.5 titanium tubing.  Each frame is designed and built one by one in our Durango, Colorado, facility to provide a ride specifically catered to the customer’s riding style and needs.

Designed with contemporary geometry that is optimized for 120-130mm travel forks, making it more capable on technical and fast-descending trails, all the while offering a fun and low-maintenance option for a wide range of trails. 

Rider position and preference can be tailored through custom geometry, which is all done in-house. The Root Hardtail’s design has been optimized to provide ample tire clearance of 29 x 2.6”, so you get that smooth ride over all types of terrain. Internal cable and dropper cable routing through the front triangle is included, with cables run externally on the rear. With the ability to hand-select the components of your choice for your Root Hardtail frame, you can build the high-performing, trail-ready bike of your dreams.

Each frame is offered with custom geometry at no additional charge. Please reach out for a custom geometry fit sheet.
