Stealth Series is a run of limited edition bikes spanning the whole Airdrop range. With a fully blacked-out colour scheme and hand-picked build kit from rider-owned brands, these bikes are on another level both in terms of aesthetics and performance.
The Slacker Stealth is built around a limited run of ten frames with a matte black powder coat finish and a black anodised rocker - a combo we've never sold before (you can choose other frame colours if you want). The head-tube badge is black brushed alloy and the decals are gloss black. As with the Slacker Works, we've selected the Boxxer Ultimate fork up front but this time in black, and we've had black decals made to keep it stealthy. They're paired with a Vivid Air Ultimate rear shock, also with custom black decals.
We've leaned into the Slacker's Park/Freeride credentials hard; the Slacker Stealth rocks a singlespeed setup, hand-built wheels, pivotal saddle and high-rise bars. We've imported NSB Talon Cranks, Chainring and BB, built to order in North Shore Billet's Whistler machine shop. They're fully CNC machined, DH/Freeride rated and independently tested at EFBE Pruftechnik in Germany. They're good. Really good. The dudes at NSB all ride bikes and they know what they're doing. But perhaps more importantly, they're anodised. In black. Singlespeed duties are carried out by the top-end Reverse Colab Pro tensioner kit made in Germany by SB One. It's all CNC-machined and features an adjustable clutch to keep everything under control and running silently.
The wheelset is built in-house with DT FR451 rims over Hope Pro 5 hubs in black. They're wearing Continental Kryptotal DH rubber front and rear. Stopping power is courtesy of SRAM Maven Silver DH brakes which - in spite of their name - are of course black. To finish things off we went straight to Chromag, putting a Riza direct-mount stem up front and pairing it with a FU40 alloy bar, then added ODI longnecks and a BSD Mondo saddle.
At Airdrop we say we build the bikes we want to ride. And we really want to ride this one. Working with NSB, Reverse, Chromag and BSD means everyone involved rides bikes and is in the game for the right reasons. We're incredibly proud that we're in a position to make bikes like this, and offer you the chance to own one.
Only 10 Slacker Stealth bikes will be built. Stealth Series owners will get a numbered certificate of authenticity with the bike, signed by the builder.
