Dartmoor Gamer INTRO 26 bike - Dragon Green

Dartmoor Gamer Intro 26 bike

Are you getting ready for your first jumps, refining your technique on the local pump track, or planning to conquer obstacles in the bike park? Dartmoor Gamer Intro 26 is designed to give you maximum confidence from day one. This robust freestyle MTB bike with 26" wheels is ideal for disciplines like dirt jump, pump track, and park riding. The key selling points lie in its extremely durable frame, maintenance-free single-speed drivetrain, and playful geometry inherited from professional models. The Gamer Intro represents the perfect entry ticket to the world of gravity disciplines without requiring huge investments.

Two6Player Geometry and AL 6061-T6 Alloy Frame

At the heart of the bike is a superbly crafted frame made of AL 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. This material undergoes a special heat treatment process, giving it extreme resistance to metal fatigue and mechanical damage, which is absolutely crucial during hard landings on jumps. The frame geometry is directly inspired by the world's most popular dirt jump frame, the Two6Player. What does this mean for you in practice? The bike has a highly playful yet stable geometry. The short chainstay (385mm) makes it incredibly easy to lift the bike off the ground for jumps (known as pop), pull it into a manual (riding on the rear wheel), and react lightning-fast on pump track rollers. Thanks to this, you will feel confident on the bike from the very first second, whether you are learning bunnyhops or mid-air rotations.

RST Dirt RA Suspension with Rebound Adjustment and Stiff Samox Cranks

Front suspension is handled by the robust RST Dirt RA fork with 100mm of travel. This fork is specifically designed for dirt jump and pump track riding—featuring a firmer steel spring that prevents unwanted "diving" into the travel during heavy pumping on rollers or when launching off lips. A key feature is the presence of oil damping with adjustable rebound. This allows you to fine-tune the speed at which the fork returns after compression, eliminating harsh "kickbacks" to your hands after heavy landings. The drivetrain consists of modern, two-piece Samox MTB cranks with short 155mm arms. Shorter cranks are a standard in modern dirt jumping—providing the rider with more room to maneuver over the frame, increasing stability when standing on the pedals, and combined with a massive AL 7075-T6 aluminum 32T direct-mount chainring, they ensure highly efficient and reliable power transfer.

Reliable Single-Speed Drivetrain and Durable Dartmoor Shark Wheels

Dirt jumping and pump tracks demand absolute reliability, which is why the Gamer Intro 26 is equipped with a maintenance-free single-speed drivetrain featuring a strong Dartmoor Iron chain. Forget about dropped chains and broken derailleurs during crashes. The wheels are built on extremely tough, double-wall Dartmoor Shark 26" rims and hubs equipped with sealed cartridge bearings. Sealed bearings offer a huge advantage over loose ball bearings: they are completely protected against dust, mud, and water, have minimal rolling resistance, and withstand massive lateral forces when carving berms. Reliable stopping power is provided by the rear Alhonga mechanical disc brake with a 160mm rotor, which offers sufficient stopping performance and easy maintenance. Wide Dartmoor Tornado (750mm) handlebars paired with a short Dartmoor Viper stem give you 100% control over every movement of the bike.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the Dartmoor Gamer Intro 26 suitable for complete beginners?

Yes, absolutely. The Intro model range is designed specifically with beginners and intermediate riders in mind. The bike offers an ideal balance between affordability and high mechanical durability. Components like the two-piece Samox cranks and sealed bearing hubs easily handle the rougher treatment associated with learning foundational skills, such as bunnyhops or proper pumping technique. Additionally, the stable geometry is forgiving of minor riding errors, helping beginners progress faster and with greater confidence.

What is the frame size and how difficult is single-speed drivetrain maintenance?

The Gamer Intro 26 comes in a universal frame size (One Size). Thanks to its optimal reach (410mm) and low seat tube, it is suitable for a wide range of rider heights (typically from around 150cm to 185cm). As for maintenance, the single-speed drivetrain is practically maintenance-free. You do not have to worry about adjusting derailleurs, and there is no risk of damaging shifters or bending a derailleur hanger during a crash. All that is required is regular cleaning and lubrication of the durable Dartmoor Iron chain, along with occasionally checking for correct chain tension by adjusting the rear hub in the frame dropouts.
