HOOK EXT C APEX AXS
The Hook EXT C looks fast even when it’s standing still. Whether you're tearing up gravel races or heading out on an epic bikepacking trip, this bike is built for full-throttle fun - with a grin guaranteed. The Hook EXT C comes with a lightweight T800 carbon frame, featuring optional internal cable routing and a full suite of signature mounting points - perfect for fast-and-light rides with frame bags in tow. Up front, the Seido MGV fork delivers generous tyre clearance, internal routing, and plenty of mount options for your gear. SRAM’s electronic Apex AXS 1x groupset handles shifting and braking, pairing a wide-range 12-speed 10 - 50T cassette with a 38T direct-mount chainring. At the cockpit, you’ll find Seido’s Tackle handlebar with a 16˚ flare, offering confident control and comfort. Rounding out the build are the SEIDO Geon gravel wheels, wrapped in 40 mm WTB Venture tyres for dependable traction on any terrain.

¹ Our bike size recommendation generally represents a rough guideline for quickly narrowing down the sizes from which to choose based on the body height. Bike fitting is a complex topic and other measurements and factors have to be accounted for as well. Since no two human bodys are exactly the same it is not possible to give a 100% correct advice for everyone. Therefore Bombtrack cannot guarantee for the stated recommendations to be correct for every individual customer. The best way to work out the correct size is to consult a local Bombtrack dealer or a professional bike fitter and have them determine the needed size.
