Things We Like

  • Performance focused 1x12-Speed Shimano Deore drivetrain
  • Powerful Shimano Hydraulic Disc brakes
  • Massive Rockshox Recon 120mm suspension with lock-out

Things We Don't Like

  • The 740mm lengthy handlebar isn’t the most comfortable for tight maneuvers
Polygon Syncline C3 29 2023 Frame

The Syncline C3 29 is equipped with an AXC XC full Carbon frame with a Cross-Country inspired geometry. The frame is built using AXC 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 Rockshox Recon Silver suspension fork was responsive during the test ride and absorbed most of the vibrations on the trail. This was possible because of its 120mm travel and an easy to use Hydraulic Suspension lock-out which immensely helped in making the ride faster on flatter patches.

Polygon Syncline C3 29 2023 Design

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

Polygon Syncline C3 29 2023 Gearing

Shimano’s Deore M6100 MTB derailleur on the Syncline C3 29 is known for the quality of shifting across its rings. This may be Shimano’s best racing groupset option in 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 dropping of 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 Deore shifters which were easy and responsive to use.

Polygon Syncline C3 29 2023 Brakes and Steering

The Shimano MT201 Hydraulic Disc brakes were as powerful as it can get on a performance focused Hardtail MTB. During the test ride, these brakes were not just powerful but also balanced on even wet trail surfaces. The brake levers required only 2 or 3 fingers to engage.

The 740mm Entity branded handlebar was lengthy and perfectly suited for fast trail rides. That being said this handlebar’s length makes it uncomfortable for those tight maneuvers.

Polygon Syncline C3 29 2023 Wheels and Saddle

The Syncline C3 29 rolls on a pair of WTB Trail Boss 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 Entity Void 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.

This full Carbon MTB is built for trail rides 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 save the cables from all the muck from the trails. Priced at Rs.1,56,990(as on 7th September 2023) the Polygon Syncline C3 29 is an ideal Bicycle for anyone one looking to buy an MTB for the roughest of trail rides and Cross Country trail races.
