The Metropolis 3 is the most affordable bike in the range and could be your first proper dirt jumper. Rest assured, the nice price doesn't mean you will be losing out on any fun - this is one hell of an exhilarating ride. The 2021 edition gets a strong Chromoly frame that's double-butted upfront to reinforce it where most needed, mainly the headtube area. Like its sibling, the geometry is based on the high-end Decade frame used by the whole NS Bikes freeride team. The tapered headtube will let you upgrade the fork when the time comes.
