Intense Tracer II
Temecula, Ca.-Friday, December 10th 2010 – The Tracer is historically our most popular series of bikes. Last year, we asked our testing, dealer, consumer, and racing teams what they would like to see to make a great ride even better.
We worked hard to incorporate every great idea we possibly could, and developed our new 2011 Tracer2. While it shares the same genetics as earlier Tracers, these remarkable improvements make it one of the best riding and handling technical trail bikes we have ever produced.
