Simplon Razorblade 29 – the third generation with pronounced racing genes

Listen up, racers and summiteers! The new SIMPLON Razorblade 29 easily climbs the highest mountains thanks to its uncompromising front drive. How’s that possible? Because of the perfect balance of minimal weight and maximum stiffness. 

The newly developed internal cable routing of shift and brake cables through the top headset cup ensures a tidy look. And generally speaking: The sleek design without hard edges or angles is really quite impressive! 

In the SL version, the carbon frame of the Razorblade only weighs about 850 grams – it hardly get’s any lighter than that! With a total weight of 8,65 kilogrammes, the SIMPLON Razorblade 29 SL is a top-tier player when it comes to racing hardtails. 

Alongside its full-blooded race character, the Razorblade also offers maximum sitting comfort – for that extra boost to make it across the finish line. 

Key facts at a glance

  • perfectly adapted to shorter riders: The XS size with special top tube is now available too
