The United Clovis 6.1 29 is a performance focused MTB built for the harshest of trail rides and XC races.

Snapshot

The United Clovis 6.1 29 is equipped with a Hydroformed Alloy frame with a cross-country inspired geometry. The frame is built using hydroformed heat treatment technology which made sure the perfect balance of light weight and strength is achieved. This was evident during the test ride when the frame responded well to acceleration and climbs.The Suntour XCR 32 LO-R suspension fork was responsive during the test ride and absorbed most of the vibrations while trail riding. This was possible because of its 1mm travel and an easy to use hydraulic suspension lock-out which helped in making the ride faster on flatter patches.

This Hardtail Alloy frame is built to match the tire size and hence comes in only S and M sizes

Shimano's Deore MTB derailleur on the Clovis 6.1 is known for the quality of shifting across its rings. This may be Shimano's best racing groupset option on a budget, but that hasn’t resulted in a lack of attention to detail: each chainring is constructed differently to balance use against weight and longevity. The 1x12-Speed drivetrain has enough range for difficult climbs and for picking up speed as well. The absence of a front derailleur has truly become a norm in performance and race specific MTBs as it helps in keeping the shifting easier and quick. This gearing setup is complete with SLX shifters which were easy and responsive to use.

The Shimano Deore 1x12-Speed derailleurs were quick and smooth in transmission

This Hardtail XC MTB which we test rode came in a dual shade of Brown and Grey colours on the frame. The internal cable routing for both the derailleur and brake cables made the Bicycle look neat and organized. The gloss finish paint job was top notch in quality.

The Clovis 6.1 comes in a two gloss colour variants; Brown/Grey and Green/Brown

The Shimano MT2 Hydraulic Disc brakes were as powerful brakes as it can get on a performance focused hardtail MTB at this price point. During the test ride, these brakes were not just powerful but also balanced even on wet trail surfaces. The brake levers required only 2 or 3 fingers to engage the brakes.The 74mm Nautilus branded handlebar was lengthy and perfectly suited for fast trail rides. That being said this handlebar's length makes it uncomfortable for those tight maneuvering.

The Shimano Hydraulic Disc brakes were powerful and balanced.

The Clovis 6.1 rolls on a pair of Maxxis Ardent 29” x 2.25” MTB tires. These hard compound heavily treaded tires were tough and can easily handle the wettest and roughest of trails.The Nautilus Saddle on this XC MTB is designed to make sure the rider is sore free even when he or she spends long hours on this Saddle during XC rides and races.

The Maxxis Ardent 29” x 2.25” tires had bulky treads and rolls fast

This MTB is built for Trail Riding and Cross Country Trail races. The 1x12-Speed Deore drivetrain along with Shimano's Hydraulic Disc brakes make this Bicycle a powerful MTB to ride. The internal cable routing on this Bicycle save the cables from muck from the trails. Priced at Rs.72,9(as on 28th September 222) the United Clovis 6.1 29 is an ideal bicycle for anyone one looking to buy an MTB for the roughest of trail rides and occasional races.
