You know the type. You see them on every track boss. Front Garmin mount. Tighter-fitting equipment and Helmet lightweight. Looking for ways to get their best times on their favorite trails. Maybe you're one of them. If so, you'll love the Factor LANDO XC. This lightweight, full-suspension 29er sneaks to the front of the starting line with race-oriented geometry and suspension that work together. Fast and fun, it's the perfect mountain bike for Cape Epic wannabes, gravel crossovers and roadies looking to get dirty.

Choosing to design the LANDO XC with a vertical shock offers huge advantages for both weight savings and stiffness: shock forces can be concentrated in the region of the sturdy, already-built Crankset casing, allowing for a svelte top tube that doesn't require excess carbon layer and weight. The design also ensures that the shock is completely isolated from any side load, improving shock life and sensitivity to small bumps by eliminating binding.

Riders who take their XC training and racing seriously rely on predictable suspension in any gear. No matter whether you're putting the hammer down on a climb or a flowing trail, no one wants to deal with a bounce or a brake jack. That's why we've designed an exclusive single-pivot "faux-bar" linkage with 115 mm of rear travel based on a 45 mm stroke shock and 100 mm based on a 40 mm stroke shock. The philosophy behind our kinematics keeps anti-squat in the 90% range to ensure that the suspension remains firm but active when you're pushing the watts. You won't need to know jack or squat.

Factor design features are never there just for show. The LANDO XC's split seat tube is not only a reference to the Twin Vane EVO split downtube on our road bikes, but also enables the use of a monobox base and low weight. Shared pivots mounted directly in the frames provide a super-rigid, well-aligned interface on which the entire suspension can ride.

The one-piece molded carbon rocker arm is extremely rigid, preventing any side-loading on the shock, greatly extending its life. The design also reduces static friction during use. The split shock absorber and lower swingarm pivot mounted as wide as possible ensure the simplest, lightest and strongest use of the frame material available. To give the system a sleek, streamlined appearance, most fasteners are hidden or on the non-drive side. The design references similar Factor mixed designs found on our high-end road bikes.

The LANDO has been designed in unison with Black Inc components to complement ride quality and minimize weight. Made from the highest quality materials, including an extremely strong Ni-Cr axle, CeramicSpeed bearings and Sapim CX-Ray spokes, Black Inc TWENTY SEVEN wheels are cross-country specific with a modern focus for today's technical race courses and exceptional riders. The Handlebar one-piece seatpost, tow-bolt seatpost and computer mount with hidden Go-Pro mount complete the suite of custom components.
