Yeti 575

 The all new redesigned 575 has been a creation in making over the last few years.  The boys over at Yeti were really pushing for newer, more custom features, which it now has. 

So whats different?  Let's start up front.  The front triangle still sports the sexy custom hydro forming tube set that has given it its distinctive look, but yeti added a tapered head tube to increase front end stiffness, added ISCG mounts and completely redesigned the main pivot and main pivot junction. The main pivot now has double row bearings for increased stiffness and durability.  A new hydroforming main pivot junction increases stiffness and fatigue strength, allows more clearance, and facilitates a direct mount front derailleur for better performance.  Yeti added cable stops for dropper seat posts as well.

The rear chainstays have completely been redesigned as well.  Gone are the svelte chain stays- these have been replaced by oversized alloy chain stays with internal cable roughting. Not only are they extreamly strong, they look good too.  They feature the yeti chip sysstem so you can run 12mm x 142mm through axel or a standard q/r.  The carbon seat stay remains in tact.  The geometry has been revised for aggressive trail riding.  Yeti lowered the bottom bracket a bit and slackened out the head tube.
